I believe I heard this quote attributed to Imam Ahmad.

When a person is born, the azan and iqamah are called, but the prayer is delayed until after his death. Meaning, the duration of a man's life is like the time between the azan and the prayer.

EDIT: Reference:
[Manaqib al-Imam Ahmad by Ibn al-Jawzi]
