What does this quote mean?
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.What does the sentences ' throw off the bowlines' means?

Answer

This is using a metaphor for "exploring, dreaming and discovering". The metaphor is about sailing and bowlines are used to hold the sailboat to the dock (where there is no danger). Throwing them off means going sailing!

Answer

The bowlines are the ropes or lines that hold a ship safely at the dock.  For a ship to sail (and possible sail into danger), the bowlines must be thrown off where they are attached so that the ship can move away from the dock.
