About This Quote

The elusive meaning of this quote is somewhat obscure, but the gist of what is said is that how you get your start in life can determine your fate. As such, it does seem to be a good idea to get out of the way, so that others can get ahead and do well. The original meaning of this phrase was that a man’s youth and health were often wasted on his parents, who would not let him reason and live for himself. However, we have taken it quite literally and associate it with our modern concept of pets. The meaning of this phrase is also slightly unclear. It appears to show the importance of getting off your ass and pursuing your dreams. However, there is something more abstract in the phrasing; it seems to be about the idea that sometimes we must begin chasing our dreams from a place where we are sitting down on the couch.
