English term or phrase: I thank everyone for everything. Live with your own minds.
A friend of mine asked me to help translate this into Latin. He needs this for an epitaph. Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

Omnibus de omnibus gratias ago. Tuis cum mentibus vivite.
Explanation:
I place 'tuis' first in the second sentence to emphasise 'your (own)' and place the imperative last in imitation of the style of archaic Roman epitaphs. As an inscription it should, as you probably know, be written wholly in capitals, without punctuation, and with V for both consonantal and vocalic U.
