I believe if we could enable people to live forever, we should do that. I think this is absolute.
I don't want to achieve immortality through my work. I want to achieve it through not dying.

Some people believe that you should die, and some people think dying is a nuisance. I'm one of the latter. So I think we should get rid of death.
