Smile carpe diem

I know of some that run in my family:
"Trust in Allah but always tie your camel" (we're not islamic but the saying still apllies)
what an old auntie used to say:
" You will have to be alive to get to the place where you die first."

and my 'own': carpe diem, seize the day
PS: Dorothy Hannah that quote is brilliant, thank you.
PS2: I love reading the books Michael Leunig writes, they're so simple and profound all the same. beautiful.
