By the way that saying seems to be refuted in the Bible. Many people that God said that he loved did not die young. Enoch, Abraham, Job, Noah, David, Samuel....all lived to be old men whether that was 75 or 750 years.
Of course, that's Old Testament. I might agree with it in the New Testament where most of the people were martyred or we aren't told of their later years, except maybe John (author of the Book of Revelations).
