Trying to find a quote

[Gordon]

I'm trying to find a thread here that had a quote that went something like: " when I die I don't want to be a well preserved body; just a a worn out........" I know I read it here.

A little help?

Here you go:

“Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body—but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, ‘Wow, what a ride!’ ”

There are variations that include "bottle in hand", etc...

Thanks Bernard!

I like

Youth and inexperience is no match for old age and treachery!!!!

Or, from the Waylon Jennings song (an ex GF used to say "Waylon & Jennings"):

"Old age and treachery always overcome youth and skill."

Oh yeah, next line is something like:

"Ain't too much that we won't try, what Waylon won't, Willie will."
