1 Carpe diem. Seize the day, boys. Make your lives extraordinary.
Never let even a single moment go waste. Seize the good out of it as much as you can, for you may never know that might never come again.
2 You must strive to find your own voice because the longer you wait to begin, the less likely you are going to find it at all
Never think too much before starting to work upon something. The more late you’ll do, the more late you’ll achieve it and you’ll be left behind in time.
3 For the first time in my whole life, I know what I wanna do! And for the first time, I’m gonna do it! Whether my father wants me to or not! Carpe diem!
When your vision of your future is clear to you, never let anyone or anything become a blockage, be it your parents. Fight for what’s yours.
4 There’s a time for daring and there’s a time for caution, and a wise man understands which is called for
One should always know when and what to do. Don’t always take steps towards something. Sometimes it is also important to stop and take precautions and process the whole thought.
5 Seize the day. Because, believe it or not, each and every one of us in this room is one day going to stop breathing, turn cold and die
Time runs out our hands without us even realising it. So make good use of it before it runs out on us.
6 No matter what anybody tells you, words and ideas can change the world
There will be people, keeping on coming and going. Their words will stay, different opinions will emerge and with it the way of life will keep on transforming.
7 Just when you think you know something, you have to look at it in another way. Even though it may seem silly or wrong, you must try
Things always look fine from one angle, but they might have faults. Always look at them through all the angles possible so that you don’t invest time in something which isn’t worth it.
8 But only in their dreams can man be truly free. ‘Twas always thus, and always this will be
Freedom is just a thought, we aren’t actually free. We all are bound to our duties. It is only in our dreams that we do whatever we think about.
9 When you read, don’t just consider what the author thinks, consider what you think
Reading is a good habit and adapting what follows is great. But one should always have his or her opinion to judge the latter upon.
10 Sucking the marrow out of life doesn’t mean choking on the bone
Seize as much as you can of life. Use it well, as much as you can. But that doesn’t mean that you get entangled in it. Stay happy and do what your hearts feel is right.
11 This is a battle, a war, and the casualties could be your heart and souls
When you feel low or disturbed, your emotions and feelings are the ones at sake. It may not seem to be a big issue, but it feels like an eternal war with hearts and souls at sake.
12 I sound my barbaric yawp over the rooftops of the world
Always be capable of letting your voice reach out to the world and let it know how talented and well carved you are.
13 That the powerful play goes on, and you may contribute a verse
This world will keep on going on, till the day it finally perishes. We all are born for our separate reasons and duties, we should keep on contributing towards it.
14 But poetry, romance, love, beauty? These are what we stay alive for!
All that we crave for while being alive is love and tenderness. We get this through what we read, see and feel.
15 No, I’ve been calm all my life! If I don’t do something, it’s gonna kill me!
One should never stop doing things. Sitting idle and laying waste to your body is just equivalent to not living. Live your life to the fullest.
