As long as you can

Last night, we went to see the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie (which was fun). Beforehand, there was a preview for a Kevin Costner flic that looks like "Top Gun does the Coast Guard" called The Guardian. In the preview, Ashton Kutcher's character, who is the diamond in the rough of the movie, asks Costner how he decides who lives and who dies. Costner replies something like,

I swim as hard as I can
for as long as I can
and the sea takes the rest.

I was reminded of that ultimate workaholic priest quote from Anglican priest (and founder of Methodism) John Wesley (1703-1791).

Do all the good you can,
By all the means you can,
In all the ways you can,
In all the places you can,
At all the times you can,
To all the people you can,
As long as you can.
