    George Mason says:
    "The span of our life is 70 years, Or 80 if one is especially strong. But they are filled with trouble and sorrow; They quickly pass by and away we fly. Teach us how to count our days So that we may acquire a heart of wisdom." (Psalm 90:10,12) "And I have hope toward God, which nope these men also look forward to, that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous. "  (Acts 24:15)
