I have to write a speach for school tomrmow about an experience. Im choosing a situation where my mother almost died during a simple surgery about year or 2 ago. Now i want to use a quote somewhat like "dont know what you got till its gone" but thats so fucking cliche and i want something cooler, and along the lines of appreciating what you got. Anyone have a good quote for that?
"Is there some principal of nature which states that we never know the quality of what we have until it is gone?" herman melville
