These things aren't inevitable, scaring people into exercise won't work. But even if they were, it wouldn't be terrible to die '"on my back, lying on my many rolls of fat, scarcely uttering a word, taking labored breaths, and eating my fill," for of all the ways a man might die, an excess of luxury was the only truly happy death'.
