Shaw said: "Use your health, even to the point of wearing it out. That is what it is for. Spend all you have before you die."
Kind of like "Life shouldn't be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, cigar in one hand, empty beer in the other, totally worn
out and sreaming " WOW what a ride! "?
If so, that's way cool.
Surely Shaw meant spending it on something of merit, and not tobacco. I enjoy my health daily, and I thank God daily that at my age I still have the athleticism to pursue my hobbies. Let's not confuse that sort of thing with filthy time wasting habits like smoking.
