Outliving Quotes

“I don’t envy her for it. The thing about making it to old age is that not everyone else will. That means you get to sit back and watch the world slip away from you, one tragedy at a time.”
― Gwendolyn Kiste, Reluctant Immortals

“But it ain't having a weak heart that lets you live as long as I have. It ain't even living that makes you live as long as me. All that shit about living a "full life" and all that. You can make love to all the women you want, make millions or dollars or eat out of a Campbell's soup can most of your life like I have. It doesn't matter for shit. What matters is outliving. Choose something, or someone, to outlive and there ain't a thing that can kill you.”
― Josh Ritter, The Great Glorious Goddamn of It All
