Today is the first day of the rest of your life.
— Today
Today is the first day of the rest of your life.
The presence of perpetual changeThat gives to-morrow birth.
Nothing that is can pause or stay; To-morrow be to-day.
Out of EternityAt night will return.
To-day is ours; what do we fear?To the gods belongs to-morrow.
To-morrow let my sun his beams display,Or in clouds hide them: I have lived to-day.
Days that need borrowFrom a fore-spent night of sorrow.
What dost thou bring to me, O fair To-day,That comest o'er the mountains with swift feet?
Happy the man, and happy he alone,To-morrow, do thy worst, for I have liv'd to-day.
The acts of to-day become the precedents of to-morrow.
What yesterday was fact to-day is doctrine.
Oh, the nursery is lonely and the garden's full of rain, I could leave this dreary country of To-day.
To-day what is there in the air To-day?
Rise! for the day is passing, In the face of the stern To-day.
Yesterday is past. Tomorrow is but a dream. Today is a gift, cherish each moment.
