ANOTHER OLD FAVORITE QUOTE

"The water which you touch in a river is the last of that which has passed and the first of that which is to come. The same is true of the present moment: life well spent is long."  —Leonardo Da Vinci (from his Treatise, but when I jotted this down in a journal in 1964, I forgot to write down the translator)

You can't step into the same river twice.
