"'The rule is,' the queen said to Alice, 'jam tomorrow, and jam yesterday, but never jam today.'"

from Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There

My dad has a really old version of this book and I read it a long time ago, but the quote was nonsense to me then.

I've lost all my English analytical skills, I suppose. I read it yesterday in a book with this explanation: "Is the sweetness of life never right now? You can always remember and hope; but sometimes you've got to spread it on today. Thick."

I've always thought if I ever got a tattoo it would be words. And those words would probably be it. I need to remember to stay in the moment.
