Claims that author Mark Twain once said, "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do."
Interview: Tom Warburton "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do." The words famously uttered by American writer Mark Twain. For many those words have been a way of life, none more so than the vivacious 23-year-old explorer Jack Groves. [...] Ultimately, life is too short to do all the things that you want to do, let alone wasting time giving a flying crap about what others think. Someone extremely close to me who lived the above ethos to the full tragically passed away, way before her time, a few days before Christmas 2018. [...] So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbour, catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore, dream, discover.' - Mark Twain 'Life is measured in achievement, not in years alone.' - Bruce McLaren.
