Best Quotes about Age and aging
An old-timer is one who remembers when it cost more to run a car than to park it.
Nobody expects to trust his body overmuch after the age of fifty.
Hoagland, Edward
No one is so old as to think he cannot live one more year.
Cicero, Marcus T.
Old age is far more than white hair, wrinkles, the feeling that it is too late and the game finished, that the stage belongs to the rising generations. The true evil is not the weakening of the body, but the indifference of the soul.
Maurois, Andre
The only time you really live fully is from thirty to sixty. The young are slaves to dreams; the old servants of regrets. Only the middle-aged have all their five senses in the keeping of their wits.
Allen, Hervey
Be wise with speed; a fool at forty is a fool indeed.
Young, Edward
One of the most important phases of maturing is that of growth from self-centering to an understanding relationship to others. A person is not mature until he has both an ability and a willingness to see himself as one among others and to do unto those others as he would have them do to him.
Overstreet, Harry A.
Old men are fond of giving good advice to console themselves for their inability to give bad examples.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De
For the last third of life there remains only work. It alone is always stimulating, rejuvenating, exciting and satisfying.
Kollwitz, KaThe
I believe the true function of age is memory. I'm recording as fast as I can.
Brown, Rita Mae
How earthy old people become --moldy as the grave! Their wisdom smacks of the earth. There is no foretaste of immortality in it. They remind me of earthworms and mole crickets.
Thoreau, Henry David
The trouble with our age is that it is all signpost and no destination.
Kronenberger, Louis
One of those men who reach such an acute limited excellence at twenty-one that everything afterward savors of anti-climax.
I have never known a person to live to be one hundred and be remarkable for anything else.
Billings, Josh
Old age is like flying through a storm. Once you're aboard, there's nothing you can do.
Meir, Golda
A healthy old fellow, who is not a fool, is the happiest creature living.
Steele, Sir Richard
Many foxes grow gray but few grow good.
Franklin, Benjamin
The surest sign of age is loneliness.
Alcott, Amos Bronson
I think middle-age is the best time, if we can escape the fatty degeneration of the conscience which often sets in at about fifty.
Inge, Dean William R.
I have lived long enough. My way of life is to fall into the sere, the yellow leaf, and that which should accompany old age, as honor, love, obedience, troops of friends I must not look to have.
Shakespeare, William
Old age comes on suddenly, and not gradually as is thought.
Rahel
We pay when old for the excesses of youth.
Proverb
Live your life and forget your age.
Peale, Norman Vincent
If you carry your childhood with you, you never become older.
Sutzkever, Abraham
There's no such thing as old age, there is only sorrow.
Wharton, Edith
Middle age is when a guy keeps turning off lights for economical rather than romantic reasons.
Cass, Eli
There are only three ages for women in Hollywood--Babe, District Attorney, and Driving Miss Daisy.
Hawn, Goldie
Old age is an excellent time for outrage. My goal is to say or do at least one outrageous thing every week.
Kuhn, Maggie
Age is a high price to pay for maturity.
Stoppard, Tom
How can I die? I'm booked.
Burns, George
Every one desires to live long, but no one would be old.
Swift, Jonathan
For the first fourteen years for a rod they do while for the next as a pearl in the world they do shine. For the next trim beauty beginneth to swerve. For the next matrons or drudges they serve. For the next doth crave a staff for a stay. For the next a bier to fetch them away.
Tusser, Thomas
One of the aged greatest miseries is that they cannot easily find a companion able to share the memories of the past.
Johnson
In mid-life the man wants to see how irresistible he still is to younger women. How they turn their hearts to stone and more or less commit a murder of their marriage I just don't know, but they do.
Neal, Patricia
Maturity is the ability to think, speak and act your feelings within the bounds of dignity. The measure of your maturity is how spiritual you become during the midst of your frustrations.
To think, when one is no longer young, when one is not yet old, that one is no longer young, that one is not yet old, that is perhaps something.
Beckett, Samuel
Old age is ready to undertake tasks that youth shirked because they would take too long.
Maugham, W. Somerset
Methuselah lived to be 969 years old . You boys and girls will see more in the next fifty years than Methuselah saw in his whole lifetime.
Twain, Mark
A woman would rather visit her own grave than the place where she has been young and beautiful after she is aged and ugly.
Harris, Corra May
Minds ripen at very different ages.
Montagu, Elizabeth
In a few days I'll have lived one score and three days in this vale of tears. On I plod --always bored, often drunk, doing no penance for my faults --rather do I become more tolerant of myself from day to day, hardening my crystal heart with blasphemous humor and shunning only toothpicks, pathos, and poverty as being the three unforgivable things in life.
What's a man's age? He must hurry more, that's all; Cram in a day, what his youth took a year to hold.
Browning, Robert
At twenty a man is full of fight and hope. He wants to reform the world. When he is seventy he still wants to reform the world, but he know he can't.
Darrow, Clarence
My time has been passed viciously and agreeably; at thirty-one so few years months days hours or minutes remain that Carpe Diem is not enough. I have been obliged to crop even the seconds -- for who can trust to tomorrow?
Byron, Lord
Age considers; youth ventures.
Raupach
When your friends begin to flatter you on how young you look, it's a sure sign you're getting old.
Twain, Mark
The value of old age depends upon the person who reaches it. To some men of early performance it is useless. To others, who are late to develop, it just enables them to finish the job.
Hardy, Thomas
Grow old with me the best is yet to come.
Browning, Robert
A lady of a certain age, which means certainly aged.
Byron, Lord
The person of wisdom is the person of years.
Young
