In the book
We confuse a crowded cockpit with a meaningful flight. The plan somehow never includes time for the surfing lesson, or learning the guitar, or writing the music, or simply playing with the dog — and then one day we look back and wonder why. People at the end almost always look back with regret at hours foolishly wasted, wondering why they did not spend more of them with the people they loved and on the work that was theirs to do. — The Landing (Death)
