Bartleby, the Scrivener, by Herman Melville: While this short story is over 166-years-old, I find myself referencing this Melville classic almost every single day. It's even a current t-shirt meme.

Gather Ye Rosebuds by Robert Herrick: If you've ever taken an early American literature course in college, this is indeed a class favorite. "To the Virgins, to Make Much of Time" is a poem written by English Cavalier poet Robert Herrick in the 17th century. First published in 1648 as number 208 in a volume of verse entitled Hesperides, it is perhaps one of the most famous poems to extol the notion of carpe diem, a philosophy that recognizes the brevity of life and, therefore, the need to live for and in the moment.
