Answer = Know Everything.
One would be dreadfully wrinkled, and weathered, if they lived forever.

I would rather know everything there is to know. If I were to live forever, life would become boring and uninteresting and I would most likely end up committing suicide, but I'll live forever, so I will just hurt myself really badly and be depressed. If I knew everything there is to know, I could write a book and better the world with my knowledge.

Live forever. That is why I chose Jesus as my Saviour because I know that I will live forever because He sacrificed His life for my sins. I already know how to live forever. I would not want to know everything because what is the point - if I knew everything, what would there be to learn? I love learning so why would I want to know everything? It would be too boring if I didn't have anything else to learn. Thank you for your question.

both would suck
why the flip would I want to live forever? I would see everyone I love die. I'm not exactly optimistic about the future of the world. I couldn't take seeing the world around me crumble. Also, could you imagine how feeble and gross-looking one would look if (s)he lived forever?
As to knowing everything...
there are things I'd keep from myself if I could
Also, there is such a thing as too much information. Who really wants to know if someone is eating their boogers in private?

Well I think the soul is immortal so in fact we do live forever. The body is just a vehicle for the soul. We come to earth to have a human experience and learn from Life 101. Once we have learned a certain amount of lessons I believe we take a respite and then come back again to fulfil karma. You could not possibly learn all the lessons in one life time. The never ending cycle of life.

That is the same thing. If I lived forever and knew everything, I'd be knowing it all.

Neither. Living forever would suck-when would I go through menopause? Would I keep getting my period for 6 billion years? That would suck! If I knew everything there was to know then everyone would hate me because I would know it all and then there would be nothing to learn from life.
