Explanation
The time phrase (S) "twenty years from now" opens the sentence, followed by (P) "you will be more disappointed." The cause of disappointment comes next: (R) "by the things you didn't do," closed by the comparison (Q) "than by the ones you did do" — Mark Twain's maxim. The sequence S-P-R-Q is option (D).
