See, the problem with doing things to prolong your life is that all the extra years come at the end, when you’re old.
Live your live to the fullest! Enjoy the perks of life now and do not constantly worry about the future. Living long is not worth anything as long as you merely exist. Living is only worth anything as long as you truly live.
Don’t waste your time preparing for growing old securely. Live!

The best people possess a feeling for beauty, the courage to take risks, the discipline to tell the truth, the capacity for sacrifice. Ironically, their virtues make them vulnerable; they are often wounded, sometimes destroyed.
Ernest Hemingway
Sometimes life takes its toll on you, but do not worry. Keep going, keep going strong and keep smiling!

Our vision is more obstructed by what we think we know than by our lack of knowledge.
Kristen Stendahl
There are a lot of things we are sure about, things we won’t discuss because we just know them. But we have to be careful about those things. It is rare that anything is easily classified right or wrong and one should always be flexible and open to change.

Whatever you are, be a good one.

It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.
Theodore Roosevelt

It is not necessary for a man to be actively bad in order to make a failure in life; simple inaction will accomplish it. Nature has everywhere written her protest against idleness; everything which ceases to struggle toward an ideal, the constant effort to get higher and further, which develops manhood and character.
James Terry White

Every worthy act is difficult. Ascent is always difficult. Descent is easy and often slippery.

Time decides who you meet in life,
your heart decides who you want in your life,
and your behavior decides who stays in your life.

The meaning of life is just to be alive. It is so plain and so obvious and so simple. And yet, everybody rushes around in a great panic as if it were necessary to achieve something beyond themselves.
Allan Watts

Decide that you want it more than you are afraid of it.
Bill Cosby
Everybody is afraid. You have to be careful not to get into a state of paralysis. Keep going, conquer your fear! Don’t get rid of it, learn how to live with it and use it as a motivation.
