Words to the Wise.

Before you speak, listen.
Before you write, think.
Before you advise, experience.
Before you spend, earn.
Before you invest, investigate.
Before you teach, learn.
Before you criticize, wait.
Before you do, don't.
Before you pray, forgive.
Before you quit, try.
Before you retire, save.
Before you die, give.

Shouldn't the last line be 'before you die, LIVE'?

And why not if it makes you happy timetraveller

Will make me happy thankyou Wiz.

Not trying to be pedantic, it was just the version I'd heard before and seems to work better...

You know TT I think you may well be right. The last line does read better your way doesn't.

Good one Wiz (and I think I like LIVE better than Give too)

Well, I still prefer give, 'cos if you give you really live.
