Mantle died pretty young, 63 years old. It is a fairly common false attribution. Just for the record (at least it wasn't Andy Rooney this time): quoteinvestigator.com As the late great Mickey Mantle once said--"If I knew I was going to live this long, I would have taken better care of myself."

I see that all the time down at the pool. We have a new state of the art olympic pool at our local YMCA, and 9 to 11 is when all the old and crippled folks go, and there are so many really over weight women mostly, but some men, having their come to Jesus moments about their health, but way too late. And they do not "get after it like they should". I have been a warrior about exercise all my life. I knew one had to do it if they wanted good health. I used to travel all over my state, Alaska, for my job, and I had running paths in lots of strange places like empty church grounds-lol. And for years I when I ran during lunch I would go to the local national guard amory, change my clothes, run and then come back, shower and go back to work. And no one ever asked what I was doing there, who I was-lol. I always wondered about that-lol? And I did a lot of traveling in really wild small villages, and had to be careful not to get eaten by a bear-lol. Especially on the Arctic, like Barrow, Kaktovic Nome, Kotzebue, etc. Polar bears are the most dangerous, then grizzlies, and I never worried too much about black bears.
