About this Quote

This quote by Woody Allen speaks with the suggestion of attaining immortality in an one-of-a-kind method. Rather than attempting to accomplish eternal life through his job, he is recommending that eternal life can be accomplished by not dying. This is an amusing method of looking at the idea of immortality, as it is difficult to attain in the traditional feeling. However, it is feasible to achieve a sort of eternal life via one's job, as it can reside on long after the person has died. It is likewise possible to accomplish a sort of everlasting life via the memories of those that recognized and also loved the person. This way, Woody Allen is suggesting that immortality can be achieved in a range of methods, which it is not necessarily restricted to one's work.
