The Duty of Using the Present

By Jeremy Taylor

LET no man extend his thoughts or let his hopes wander toward future and far distant events and accidental contingencies. This day is mine and yours, but ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For he that by a present and a constant holiness secures the present, and makes it useful to his noblest purposes, he turns his condition to his best advantage.—Jeremy Taylor.
