"Most men don’t die of old age, they die of retirement. I read somewhere that half the men retiring in the state of New York die within two years. Save your life and you’ll lose it. Just like other drugs, other psychological addictions, retirement is a virulent disease, not a blessing. Where in the Bible do you see retirement? Did moses retire? Did Paul retire? Peter? John? Do military officers retire in the middle of a war?"

Ralph Winter, founder of the U.S. Center for World missions
