    Jim Whittaker, the first American to summit Everest uses that line to describe his philosophy of life. I don't know if he "coined" it or not. You picked a good one Sue. Welcome.

        2000 Year Old Sanskrit Poem
        (Author Unknown)

        Listen to the salutation of the dawn.

        Look to this day,
        For it is life,
        The very life of life.

        In its brief course lies all
        The realities and truth of existence,
        The joy of growth,
        the splendor of action,
        The glory of power

        For yesterday is but a memory,
        And tomorrow a vision.

        But today well lived,
        Makes every yesterday a memory of happiness,
        And every tomorrow a vision of hope.,

        Look well therefore to this day.

            Seven things that will destroy us:

            ~Wealth without work
            ~Pleasure without conscience
            ~Knowledge without character
            ~Business without ethics
            ~Science without humanity
            ~Religion without sacrifice
            ~Politics without principle

            (Mahatma Ghandi)
