Carpe Diem : What we do in life, echoes in eternity

In the movie Gladiator, General Maximus leads his troops into battle and prepares them for a siege. He reminds them that their actions will determine the outcome of the battle and inspires them exhorting -

What we do in life, echoes in eternity

The truism is that this affects all we do, how our children grow up remembering how we interact [ or don't ] with them.

And if we are lucky, the positive and long lasting impressions that we bring to all our interactions.

Or how we innovate in what we do, set trends in our professions and businesses.

2 quotes resonates long after the movie ends. This is one of them.

The Other : At my signal, unleash hell.

Watch this clip and then watch [ or rewatch] this great movie.
