About This Quote

There are people who believe that the only way to have a good time is to spend as much as you can, as quickly as you can. Although there are those who believe that a good time means being extravagant and splurging. These two people have a lot in common, they both think that the more they spend, the better it is for them, but they are both wrong. The truth of the matter is that there is no such thing as having a good time at all until you learn how to put things into perspective. On the other hand, there are those who think that all they need to do is go out and enjoy themselves, but this is also wrong; they will never understand the true meaning of having fun until they understand the difference between enjoyment and pleasure.
