Dead Poets Society

Now I would like you to step forward over here
and peruse some of the faces from the past.
You've walked past them many times.
I don't think you've really looked at them.
They're not that different from you, are they?
Same haircuts. Full of hormones, just like you.
Invincible, just like you feel.
The world is their oyster.
They believe they're destined for great things,
just like many of you.
Their eyes are full of hope, just like you.
Did they wait until it was too late
to make from their lives even one iota
of what they were capable?
Because you see gentlmen,
these boys are now fertilizing daffodils.
But if you listen real close,
you can hear them whisper their legacy to you.
Go on, lean in.
Carpe.
Carpe. Carpe Diem.
Seize the day boys,
make your lives extraordinary.
