You can only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.

You can't get there from here.

You can't mend a wristwatch while falling from an airplane.

You can't push on a string.

You can't run away forever,
But there's nothing wrong with getting a good head start.
                -- Jim Steinman, "Rock and Roll Dreams Come Through"

"You can't survive by sucking the juice from a wet mitten."
                -- Charles Schulz, "Things I've Had to Learn Over and
                   Over and Over"

You can't take it with you -- especially when crossing a state line.

You climb to reach the summit, but once there, discover that all roads
lead down.
                -- Stanislaw Lem, "The Cyberiad"

You have all eternity to be cautious in when you're dead.
                -- Lois Platford

You have to run as fast as you can just to stay where you are.
If you want to get anywhere, you'll have to run much faster.
                -- Lewis Carroll
