Do not try to live for ever. You will not succeed. — George Bernard Shaw

Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people laugh.

Attention and activity lead to mistakes as well as to successes; but a life spent in making mistakes is not only more honorable but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.

Use your health, even to the point of wearing it out. That is what it is for. Spend all you have before you die; and do not outlive yourself.
