573 – “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. “

–Sarah Frances Brown [See Source Notes]

Source Notes: This quote, in part, has been attributed to others, most commonly Mark Twain, however, there is no historical evidence that he ever said this quote or anything similar to this quote. The popularity of the misattribution is likely tied to the fact that the quote appears in the game Minecraft attributed to Mark Twain.
