Quote by Henry Ward Beecher

We steal if we touch tomorrow. It is God's.

We steal if we touch tomorrow. It is God's.

Summary

This quote is a short reminder about the importance of living in the present moment. It suggests that if we constantly worry or plan for the future, we are essentially robbing ourselves of the present. The idea of tomorrow, symbolized as something owned by God, serves as a reminder that the future is unpredictable and uncertain, and therefore we should focus on appreciating and valuing the gift of the present instead of constantly striving for what is yet to come.

I notice that you use plain, simple language, short words and brief sentences. That is the way to write English - it is the modern way and the best way. Stick to it; don't let fluff and flowers and verbosity creep in. When you catch an adjective, kill it. No, I don't mean utterly, but kill most of them - then the rest will be valuable. They weaken when they are close together. They give strength when they are wide apart. An adjective habit, or a wordy, diffuse, flowery habit, once fastened upon a person, is as hard to get rid of as any other vice.
