Live life to the fullest.
The phrase "seize the moment" is often attributed to the Roman poet Horace. He expressed the idea of seizing the day, or "carpe diem," in his work "Odes" where he encouraged making the most of the present moment.
C. Diem has written: 'The Olympic idea'
In both "To His Coy Mistress" by Andrew Marvell and "Song" by John Donne, the theme of carpe diem emphasizes the urgency of seizing the moment in love and life. Marvell argues that time is fleeting and urges his lover to act on their desires before youth fades, using elaborate imagery to illustrate the consequences of delay. Similarly, Donne’s poem conveys a sense of immediacy, asserting that love should not be postponed, as time is a relentless force. Both poems ultimately celebrate the idea of embracing passion and intimacy in the face of life's transience.
