Life, if well lived, is long enough.
Get busy living, or get busy dying.
Mere longevity is a good thing for those who watch Life from the side lines. For those who play the game, an hour may be a year, a single day's work an achievement for eternity.
One thing I'm not going to do is chase staying alive. You spend so much time chasing staying alive, you won't live.
There's not enough time to be disrespecting... Life is too short.
Begin at once to live, and count each separate day as a separate life.
In life, like, I'm always living life to the fullest to always have fun.
Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted.
Life is busy. There are daily concerns and obligations that have to be met, and to take time to think about how precious and special a human life is that you only get one, and that every wasted minute is lost. You can't get it back.
Sometimes I wish I lived more in the day, but I'm happier thinking about tomorrow or the day after. The way I see it, there's always a new or next thing.
If you are going to have any chance of replicating life, you need to live it.
Take 'Jack and Diane.' I was so disgusted with people thinking the line 'Hold on to sixteen as long as you can' meant to stay a teenager forever. What I meant was keep doing whatever makes you feel alive.
Life is too short no matter what party you are with.
Life is very short... but I would like to live four times and if I could, I would set out to do no other things than I am seeking now to do.
I'm not someone who dwells upon past events, taking the view that life is too short.
I want to have fun. Life ain't no dress rehearsal. I want to have fun. I'm a comedian; I ain't no politician. So everything I do is with humor, with love.
I think about how best to live my grandmother's twin mantras that 'Life is not a dress rehearsal' and 'Life is not about what happens to you, but what you do with what happens to you.'
You are not waiting for your life to start. It's going on right now.
You are a long time retired. I don't want to sit there when that happens and think, 'Oh, I wish I had done that better'. I just think everything I can do, that is always the way that I have been. I don't want to have any regrets.
You have to prove yourself every day. You have to live for today.
