“Four things come not back: the spoken word, the sped arrow, the past life, and the neglected opportunity.”
“There are two things that cannot be taken back- the sped arrow and the spoken word.”
“Our priorities are most visible in how we use our time. Someone has said, “Three things never come back—the spent arrow, the spoken word, and the lost opportunity.” We cannot recycle or save the time allotted to us each day. With time, we have only one opportunity for choice, and then it is gone forever.”
“There is no going back in life, no return, no second chance. I cannot call back the spoken word or the accomplished deed.”
“Three things cannot be called back: the arrow when it speeds from the bow, the milk when the churn is upturned, the word when it leaps from the tongue.”
“My life is four walls of missed opportunities poured in concrete molds.”
