I expect to pass through life but once. If therefore, there be any kindness I can show, or any good thing I can do to any fellow being, let me do it now, and not defer or neglect it, as I shall not pass this way again.
In today’s wordsI'll only pass through life once. So if there's any kindness I can show or good I can do for anyone, let me do it now and not put it off, because I won't pass this way again.
