Mel says passion for life and his creativity all stem from his childhood.

"I think there was something rich and wonderful about growing up in Brooklyn. It was a magical place that filled you with dreams, ideals and a love of life. I remember being a little kid and actually loving being alive. They say comedians usually have a bad childhood, so they make up for it with laughter and love from the audience. That's nonsense! For me, it's about continuing the love you got as a child. I had a lot of love as a kid, and I don't want that love to stop," Mel told AARP.

Norman says the secret to his longevity is all about living in the moment.

"Two little words we don't pay enough attention to: over and next. When something is over, it is over and we are on to next. And I like to think about the hammock in the middle of those two words. That's living in the moment. That's the moment I believe I'm living as I complete this sentence. And it couldn't be more important to me," Norman told NPR.

And as spiritual beings, we have no time, we have no age so I choose to vibrate on 30. That's the truth, Ruth," she recently told the Daily News.
