Her Quote

[edit]

She had a really smart and famous quot: "The clock is running. Make the most of today. Time waits for no man. Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That's why it is called the present." from the book: 'Sun Dials and Roses of Yesterday'. I think it will be reasonable to add this quote somewhere in the page. Or in WikiQuote with link. Thanks.

She did not say that. lol [1] The book "Sun Dials and Roses of Yesterday" is available online[2], and there is no mention of tomorrow being a mystery or today being a gift or a present. There is a delightful section on sun-dial mottoes, but that quote is not among them. On-TechDan (talk) 13:19, 24 June 2016 (UTC)On-TechDan[reply]
