“We do not stop playing because we are old. We grow old because we stop playing. There are only four secrets to staying young, being happy and achieving success. You have to laugh and find humor each and every day. You have got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die. We have so many people walking around who are dead and they don’t even know it! There is a big difference between growing older and growing up. If you are 19 years old and lie in bed for one full year and don’t do one productive thing, you will turn 20 years old. If I am 87 years old and stay in bed for a year and never do anything I will turn 88. Anybody can grow older. That doesn’t take any talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding the opportunity for change. And have no regrets. The elderly usually don’t have regrets for what they did, but rather for things they did not do. The only people who fear death are those with regrets.”

“我们不再运动,并非因为我们老了;由于不再运动,所以我们才会变老。想要拥有年轻、快乐和成功,只有四个秘诀。每天要开怀大笑,保持幽默感。要心怀梦想。一旦失去梦想,你就完了。我们身边有很多如同行尸走肉的人,而他们自己却不知道!慢慢变老和不断成长之间有着天壤之别。如果你19岁,在床上躺整整一年,不做任何生产性的事情,你就会变成20岁。我87岁,在床上躺一年,不做任何事情,我会变成88岁。每个人都会变老,这不需要任何才能。我想要说的是,我们要不断寻找机会去改变,这样我们才能不断成长。不要心怀遗憾。老年人往往会感到遗憾,并非为自己已做的事,而是为自己尚未做过的事。只有心存遗憾的人才会害怕死亡。”
