Quote? Who said it?

Question

Does anyone know who said this: "Dream as though you live forever, but live as though you die tomorrow". I don't know if those are the exact words. I need to know quickly. If anyone knew a website that quotes it that would be great.

Answer 1

James Dean said:

Dream as if you'll live forever. Live as if you'll die today.

His quote has also been printed this way...

Dream as if you'll live forever; live as if you'll die tomorrow.

He became a symbol of young Hollywood rebel actors when he played the lead in "Rebel Without a Cause."

Ironically, he was killed in 1955 in a tragic car accident at the young age of 24!
