a couple qualifers...
-i want to live as long as my mind is sharp. if i fall victim to severe alzheimers... that's when i want to punch out.
-i don't want to outlive my future wife by much provided we both live to 65 or so.
if those two conditions are satisfied... i think i would like to live for couple thousand years. i would want to die, but i'd love to have a lot of time to learn everything i can.

If you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance for survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.
