Additional quotes by Edward Young

Tomorrow is a satire on today,
And shows its weakness.

Be wise today; 'tis madness to defer.

At thirty, man suspects himself a fool;
Knows it at forty, and reforms his plan;
At fifty chides his infamous delay,
Pushes his prudent purpose to resolve;
In all the magnanimity of thought
Resolves, and re-resolves; then dies the same.
