What's more important to you, quantity of life or quality of life?

Definately quality. I can't think of anything more miserable than living to a great age and being bored out of my skull because life was a drag.

Quality of life. Living without dignity beyond my ability to take care of myself, anad having Alzeimers Disease is my greatest fear. I want to die before I reach the stage where I can no loger recognize family members, remember my past or understand what is hapening around me.

I spent the evening visiting with a friend who has terminal cancer. S life is coming to an end but even now his main concern is quality not quantity. He said that if chemo would cure his cancer he would suffer the agony and continue treatments but since, according to his Doctors, he will only extend his life by a few weeks at the cost of tremendous suffering from the side effects of chemo he has decided to end his treatments.

He would, without hesitation, trade quantity for quality. I understand his choice and I believe I would make the same one.

I'm with quality. I would rather die at a younger age than live longer in utter misery. I am not afraid to die.

Quality. I'd rather die young doing the things I enjoy, rather than grow old and be miserable because I didn't take any risks or eat the occassional junk food.

For sure the quality of life, what"s the point if one live long and not doing neither functioning in his life.

Quality of life ofcourse, to have LOVE inside your heart will makes quality of your life.

Certainly, Quality of Life is more important than quantity of life.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
