Here is the full quote: "I shall pass through this world but once. And any good therefore that I can do, or any kindness that I can show to any being, let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again." @ Pieter – That inspirational quote of how we should then live is by Henry Drummond. Here is the full quote:

Castor Wed, 10 Mar 2010 00:46:16 +0000 http://artofmanliness.com/?p=6467#comment-96983 “Advice to My Son,” by Peter Meinke is one of the most inspirational and significant poem that I can recommend to read for young people. This poem is about a responsive, sensitive and caring father who doesn’t want his son to take life for granted. Look at the first stanza the two lines say: “The trick is, to live your days as if each one may be your last “The father told his son that the future is unpredictable therefore do not take life lightly but live to the fullest. This is a very meaningful advice because no one holds the future but we need to live one day at a time. “To live your days as if one may be your last” he meant that there is no guarantee to see tomorrow. He wanted his son to know that lives can go so fast because there are so many unfortunate event like natural disaster and unpredictable incident that end people lives every day. “Advice to My Son,” by Peter Meinke is one of the most inspirational and significant poem that I can recommend to read for young people.
