   "Although it is a widely held belief that human beings are mortal, the relevant   
   statistics do not, in fact, support this theory. Of all humans ever born,   
   one-third were prehistoric, one-third lived since history began and one-third   
   are still alive. Consequently, mortality has only occurred in two cases out of   
   three, a statistic that by no means suggests that it will always be true. So it   
   appears that there is no significant evidence that any of us will ever die."
