Sometimes I have thought it would be an excellent rule to live each day as if we should die tomorrow. Such an attitude would emphasize sharply the values of life. We should live each day with a gentleness, a vigor, and a keenness of appreciation which are often lost when time stretches before us in the constant panorama of more days and months and years to come. There are those, of course, who would adopt the epicurean motto of “Eat, drink and be merry,” but most people would be chastened by the certainty of impending death.
Helen Keller: Three Days to See
有时我想，把每一天当作生命的最后一天来过，也许是一种极好的生活准则。这种态度会使生命的价值鲜明突出，使我们以优雅的风度、旺盛的精力和高度珍惜的心情度过每一天；而当我们觉得岁月延绵不断，来日方长时，往往失掉这种态度。当然，有人会因而奉行享乐主义的信条，一味吃喝玩乐，但是更多的人却会因为行将就木而变得严肃纯洁。
海伦·凯勒：《给我三天光明》
