"Be in this life like a stranger or a traveler. If you reach the evening, do not await (to be alive) by dawn, And if you reach dawn, do not await (to be alive) by evening. Take advantage of your health before you fall sick. And take advantage of your life, before you die." (Bukhari)

"Consider the human soul and the proportion and order given to it (by God), (Who) inspired it with knowledge of what is wrong for it and what is right for it. Indeed successful will be the one who keeps it pure." (Quran, 91:7-9)
