79 Life Is Too Short Quotes


Be motivated by these life is too short quotes. Encouraging and inspiring words to live life today, don't wait until tomorrow.

In the presence of the mind, everyone understands that life is far too short. The question for some is to ask how does one get more out of the short time we have been given? To others, there is no question about how to pack in more but only to bemoan, express tedium, shirk responsibilities and fritter away the supreme meaning of life.

Our time on earth is as fleeting as the dew upon a morning grass; the older we become, so it seems that the morning dew retreats faster and faster as if vaporized immediately in front of our eyes. Each day is a special and splendid opportunity to do what we have been designed to do; it is another chance to make changes for the better for our fellow humankind.
