30. Belatedly

One always dies too soon or too late. And yet, life is there, finished: the line is drawn, and it must all be added up. You are nothing other than your life.

Jean-Paul Sartre

It is never too late to be what you might have been.

George Eliot

 

Which form of proverb do you prefer: Better late than never, or Better never than late?

Lewis Carroll

I like both of the first 2, not so much the last. The first speaks to me of living life as it is in the moment, the second gives hope that there is always possibility.

I'm a hyper-punctual sort, but even I would prefer late to never.
