I'm looking for the quote from the beginning of May It Last.

At the beginning of May It Last: Portrait of the Avett Brothers, there is a quote about the importance of being present. It is attributed to their grandfather Clegg Avett. Perhaps you or someone you know scribbled it down. I have been unable to find it by other means.

Via Pinterest, so no promises as to authenticity:

We are at this moment where we have never been before, and before I finish saying it, we have passed it and will never be there again. - Rev. Clegg W. Avett (1914-1976)

Here's a good article about the Avetts and that movie, with interview stuff. Hope you enjoy it. May It Last
