I have several mottos.
My number one life motto is:
“Laugh and come.”
My number two motto is:
“No arguing, no suffering.”
Number three is:
“I don't consent to this” if it's not about laughing and having fun and enjoying life.
You know, there was this really great thing, once upon a time, called The 2000-year-old Man, where Mel Brooks was playing this 2000-year-old man, and then he was asked what the secret to life was, or whatever his motto for life was.
And he said:
“To live.”
And then the interviewer says:
“That's it? To live?”
And then Mel Brooks goes:
“No, not to live … TO LIVE!”
That's my motto. I want TO LIVE, I don't want to argue.
