About This Quote
"I aspire to be an old man with an old wife laughing at old jokes from a wild youth" is a phrase that captures a lot of the desire to relive the years of our youth. We stand there on the precipice of adulthood, ready to take on the world and often wonder if we made the right decisions. We find ourselves reflecting on those first few years and recalling high school romances, wacky hijinks, and best friends who are now married to each other. When we look back, we realize that our lives would have been so different if we had made different choices or if fate had turned out differently.
