Today Mr. Laffin shared a quote of Robert H. Smith, the was like this- "The clock of life is wound but once, the hands will stop, at a late or early hour. Now is the only time you own, Live, Love, til with a will. For the clock may soon be still." I really like this quote, it's not just because I think it sounds beautiful and deep, I also think that it is like a quote all of us should always remember. I think this quote is talking about we should treasure our life, and you only have one life and so hold on to what you have. I think this quote is a bit connected with the quote that Steve Jobs said, he said, "Stay foolish, and stay hungry." I always thought it sounds weird, but now I realize what that actually mean, it means to take a risk in your on and only life, also don't let your good opportunity to go away. I think believe in ourselves is also very important. The metaphor use in this quote is clock, the author- Robert H. Smith use clock to describe a
person's life, and Robert also talk about life sometimes ends unexpectedly, so never give up, try your best everyday and every time.
