What we do in life echoes in eternity - Maximus from Gladiator

This quote from the film Gladiator was borrowed from Marcus Aurelius (who is also portrayed in the film).

"What we do now echoes in eternity."

More quotes to inspire living life to the fullest:

All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.
~ Gandalf, The Fellowship of the Ring

Someone once told me that time was a predator that stalked us all our lives. But I rather believe than time is a companion who goes with us on the journey, and reminds us to cherish every moment because they'll never come again. What we leave behind is not as important how we lived. After all, Number One, we're only mortal.
~ Captain Jean-Luc Picard, Star Trek: Generations
