About This Quote
Peter Pan is the character in J.M. Barrie's 1904 play "Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up" who lives in Neverland, an imaginary land where children never grow up. Peter Pan says "I'd love to stay here forever," but he is forced to go back to his own world when he is grown up. Fortunately, most people don't have Peter Pan's problem of getting stuck in the past.
Instead, they want to stay young forever. They don't want to grow up because that would mean leaving behind all their dreams and ambitions.
