The original quote is attributed to Allen Saunders. It appeared in the "Quotable Quotes" section of the January 1957 issue of Reader's Digest:

Allen Saunders: "Life is what happens to us while we are making other plans."

~ Publishers Syndicate

The quote was later used or paraphrased by other individuals. Among the most famous uses is John Lennon's song "Beautiful Boy" (album Double Fantasy, 1980):

"Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans."
