The Problem with Small Wings

We were just throwing around quotes attempting to get a great one - possibly for "Bartletts Familiar Quotations", I mean why not?

And here's a selection for voting:

1. If you try harder less, you'll live longer.

2. If you use a parachute, you'll live longer.

3. If you don't have a parachute, you die.

There they are. Let me know what submission wins?
