Ogni lasciata è persa

Title
every oppurtunity not taken is lost forever
Translation

Translated by bacarolle
Target language: English

every missed chance is lost forever
Remarks about the translation
literalmente, in inglese, questa frase e' "everything left is lost", ma significa che si deve prendere la palla al balzo (di solito con le cose romantiche o sessuale). In inglese', c'e' una frase piu' idiomatica "oppurtunity knocks but once" ma non e' molto diffuso. Anche c'e' "strike while the iron is hot" che significa si deve agire al momento ottimale.

How about "He who hesitates is lost"? I think this is supposed to be one of Confucius' sayings, but it's widely known in this form in English.
