About this Quote

In this quote, Johnny Carson is making an amusing observation about the differences in between married and single men. He mentions that married males tend to live longer than single males, which is a typically understood truth. Nevertheless, he adds a twist by stating that wed men are likewise more going to pass away. This might be interpreted in a couple of different methods. One interpretation might be that family men are more content and fulfilled in their lives, so they are less scared of death. Another interpretation might be that family men are more likely to take dangers or participate in dangerous activities, possibly due to the impact of their spouse. Overall, Carson's quote highlights the complexities and subtleties of marriage and the differences in between single and married people.
