Mozart lived for 35 years

Lehrer did 97

> Lehrer did [sic] 97

FYI, most people speak the vast majority of their quotes before the day they die.

Unfortunately for Lehrer he embarrassed himself in his final words by misremembering how long Mozart lived

He’ll never live it down.

No he was correctly factoring in afterlife time dilation

Classic old guy

The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated.

I sure hope they speak all of them before they die. Bit hard to understand a corpse.

It is possible Lehrer said that before his last day on earth. Sometime around age 37 would make sense.

In fact, I had the original album from the 1960s and, yes, that's where I heard the line.

(Lehrer was a mathematician) he did the maths! Well.. arithmetic.

Was that the new math or the old?
