念旧的人总活得像个拾荒者
[niàn jiù de rén zŏng huó dé xiàng gè shí huāng zhĕ]
The phrase 'People who reminisce often live like scavengers' suggests individuals clinging tightly to past experiences or objects tend to look backwards more than they embrace new things. Conveys nostalgia and possibly regret over moving on.
