We are here just for a spell and then pass on. So get a few laughs and do the best you can. Live your life so that whenever you lose it, you are ahead.

As quoted in Peter's Quotations : Ideas for Our Time (1979) by Laurence J. Peter, p. 285 | We are all here for a short spell; so get all the good laughs you can. | As quoted in Civilization's Quotations : Life's Ideal (2002) by Richard Alan Krieger, p. 69

We are all here for a spell; get all the good laughs you can.
