In twenty years, the only people who will remember that you worked all the time are your children.

Reminds me of that song, "Cats in the Cradle" by Harry Chapin. That's sort of what the song is about.

The dad never has time for his kid because he's working all the time. But the kid wanted to be just like his dad.

And so the kid, when he's grown up, ends up never having time for his dad. He's grown up to be just like his dad.
