Satchel Paige's six rules for a long and good life are:

1.  Avoid fried foods 'cause they angers up the blood.

2.  If your stomach disputes you, lie down and pacify it with
cool thoughts.

3.  Keep the juices flowing by jangling gently as you move.

4.  Go very light on the vices, such as carrying on in
society - the society ramble ain't restful.

5.  Avoid running at all times.

6.  Don't look back - someone may be gaining on you.
