    I'm really enjoying the proverb "Carpe diem" at the moment. Thanks to some bad translation I've read it as "Don't waste time", which I'm finding a really helpful thing to keep reminding myself of.

    Anyone else got some poor words of wisdom?

    "Tempus fugit"
    "Carpe diem" is "Seize the day"

    All spelling mistakes and grammatical errors in my post's are intentional.
