Being one who suffered from a relentless, existential crisis, constantly thinking about death, my only means of getting through the day is by convincing myself that I will never die.
It sounds ridiculous, but it’s necessary and true.
The phrase I’ve become fond of using to express this sentiment is this:
“I plan to live forever or die trying.”
It’s exactly how I feel.
But I’ve recently stumbled upon another that I also like a lot. The artist David Hockney says:
“I’ll go on until I fall over.”
I like that one, too.
