Quote Of The Day! Day 2

QOTD is here! No. Not "Question of the Day". Something better.

Inspired by The Rhine and Danube's Song of the Day. Danke schön :3

Basically, this'll be me posting a quote, mostly from books or music, that sounds inspiring, or maybe that's fun, or that makes you think. Or maybe it's "La-Si-Re-Do-Mi-Mi-Do" because it sounds very good. Whatever. I'll also sometimes write a little something about why I liked that quote. You can send me your quotes, even if they're not in english, along with where they came from (and a traduction in english, in case of), and you'll (probably) see it the next day!

Quote of the Day 2:

Baby love, baby child, you’re gonna die
All your friends, all the flowers, gonna die
So, why you so shy? Why you so shutoff?
You’re running out of time

Not only I love Mother Mother, but I had the chance (or money + time) to go to one of their concerts. Some of their songs have a seemingly pessimistic message, and from one of them is this quote. These lines talk about the passing of time, on how nothing matters, because nothing is meant to stay forever, flowers, friends, but it nonetheless implies that, even though life isn't forever, that is the very reason for which we ought to enjoy it, because we're "running out of time". That we must enjoy the moment we're living before it goes away and we regret not having spent doing something else.

I've seen paradise and hell
Without not even only opening the eyes.

(Original in spanish)
He visto el paraíso y el infierno
Sin ni tan siquiera abrir los ojos
