我已經到了望九之年，可謂長壽矣，因此經常有人向我詢問長壽之道，養生之術。我敬謹答曰：“養生無術是有術。”因此，我首創了三“不”主義：不鍛煉，不挑食，不嘀咕，名聞全國。
我這個三不主義，容易招誤會，我現在利用這個機會解釋一下。我并不絕對反對適當的體育鍛煉。但不要過頭。一個人如果天天望長壽如大旱之望云霓，而又絕對相信體育鍛煉，則此人心態恐怕有點失常，反不如順其自然為佳。
至于不挑食，常見有人年才逾不惑，就開始挑食，每到吃飯，戰戰兢兢，如履薄冰，窘態可掬，看了令人失笑，以這種心態而欲求長壽，豈非南轅而北轍！
我個人認為，第三點最為重要，對什么事情都不嘀嘀咕咕，心胸開朗，樂觀愉快，吃也吃得下，睡也睡得著，有問題則設法解決之，有困難則努力克服之，決不視芝麻綠豆大的窘境如蘇迷廬山般大，也決不毫無原則地隨遇而安，決不玩世不恭，有這樣的心境，焉能不健康長壽？
One who overrates physical training while dreaming of living a long life as longing for clouds in a serious drought might be out of his mind. On the contrary, it is better to let things take their own course.
As for no picky eating, I often find people merely over forty start being extremely choosy about food. Whenever sitting at the table, they behave gingerly as treading on thin ice. The embarrassment they show evokes laughter from all. With such a mentality to seek for longevity, they can only end up in vain!
The most important of the “three NOs”. in my view, is the third one of avoiding grumbling under any circumstances. Be broad-minded, optimistic and cheerful, and you will have a good appetite and enjoy a sound sleep. When you are faced with problems, try every means to solve them; when there are difficulties, do your best to overcome them. Neither fret over odds and ends, reconcile yourself to any situation without principle nor be cynical.
