Life of the mind.

Rita Levi-Montalcini won a Nobel Prize for her work on nerve growth factor, which she now administers daily in eyedrops to keep her mind sharp and fend off Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. And she's over 100.

Richard Feynman won a Nobel Prize, worked on the atomic bomb, and died of two rare forms of cancer at 70.

Hmmm.
