Quotation origin please

[jodder]

Could someone please help me find the full quotation or origin of this quote ............ it goes something like Take a moment to rest a while for we may never pass this way again. Thanks for any ideas

[kettledrum]

Do you mean this - or something very similar ?

We expect to pass through this world but once. Therefore any good that we can do, or any kindness that we can show, let us do it now, for we may not pass this way again.

I don't know it's origin I'm afraid.
