Age and aging Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Age and aging

1.
Age is a question of mind over matter. If you don't mind, age don't matter.
Paige, Leroy ''Satchel''

Getting old is a fascination thing. The older you get, the older you want to get.
Richards, Keith

Old age comes on suddenly, and not gradually as is thought.
Rahel

4.
You know you're getting old when the candles cost more than the cake.
Hope, Bob

5.
Age is whatever you think it is. You are as old as you think you are.
Ali, Muhammad

6.
Old age equalizes -- we are aware that what is happening to us has happened to untold numbers from the beginning of time. When we are young we act as if we were the first young people in the world.
Hoffer, Eric

7.
Middle age is when a guy keeps turning off lights for economical rather than romantic reasons.
Cass, Eli

8.
The more sand has escaped from the hourglass of our life, the clearer we should see through it.
Paul, Jean

Thirty was so strange for me. I've really had to come to terms with the fact that I am now a walking and talking adult. [Reflecting on his former status as a teen idol]
Dillon, Matt

10.
I don't generally feel anything until noon, then it's time for my nap.
Hope, Bob

11.
To be seventy years old is like climbing the Alps. You reach a snow-crowned summit, and see behind you the deep valley stretching miles and miles away, and before you other summits higher and whiter, which you may have strength to climb, or may not. Then you sit down and meditate and wonder which it will be.
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth

12.
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.

13.
Middle age is youth without levity, and age without decay.
Defoe, Daniel

14.
Growing old is like being increasingly penalized for a crime you haven't committed.
Powell, Anthony

15.
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

16.
You must not pity me because my sixtieth year finds me still astonished. To be astonished is one of the surest ways of not growing old too quickly.
Colette, Sidonie Gabrielle

17.
An old-timer is one who remembers when it cost more to run a car than to park it.

18.
Those who search beyond the natural limits will retain good hearing and clear vision, their bodies will remain light and strong, and although they grow old in years they will remain able-bodied and flourishing; and those who are able-bodied can govern to
Huang Ti

19.
The older the fiddler, the sweeter the tune.
Proverb, English

20.
There's no such thing as old age, there is only sorrow.
Wharton, Edith

21.
The surest sign of age is loneliness.
Alcott, Amos Bronson

22.
I shall soon be six-and-twenty. Is there anything in the future that can possibly console us for not being always twenty-five?
Byron, Lord

23.
No gray hairs streak my soul, no grandfatherly fondness there! I shake the world with the might of my voice, and walk --handsome, twenty-two year old.
Mayakovsky, Vladimir

24.
By the time we hit fifty, we have learned our hardest lessons. We have found out that only a few things are really important. We have learned to take life seriously, but never ourselves.
Dressler, Marie

25.
The short bloom of our brief and narrow life flies far away. While we are calling for flowers and wine and woman, old age is upon us.
Juvenal, (Decimus Junius Juvenalis)

26.
Gray hairs are signs of wisdom if you hold your tongue, speak and they are but hairs, as in the young.
Philo

27.
You must become an old man in good time if you wish to be an old man long.
Cicero, Marcus T.

28.
It really costs me a lot emotionally to watch myself on-screen. I think of myself, and feel like I'm quite young, and then I look at this old man with the baggy chins and the tired eyes and the receding hairline and all that.
Hackman, Gene

29.
One is rarely an impulsive innovator after the age of sixty, but one can still be a very fine orderly and inventive thinker. One rarely procreates children at that age, but one is all the more skilled at educating those who have already been procreated, and education is procreation of another kind.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.

30.
Old age is ready to undertake tasks that youth shirked because they would take too long.
Maugham, W. Somerset

31.
The outer passes away; the innermost is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
Carlyle, Thomas

32.
Every time I think that I'm getting old, and gradually going to the grave, something else happens.
Carter, Lillian

33.
How beautifully leaves grow old. How full of light and color are their last days.
Burroughs, John

34.
One of the many things nobody ever tells you about middle age is that it's such a nice change from being young.
Fisher, Dorothy Canfield

35.
I have always felt that a woman has the right to treat the subject of her age with ambiguity until, perhaps, she passes into the realm of over ninety. Then it is better she be candid with herself and with the world.
Rubinstein, Helena

36.
The great secret that all old people share is that you really haven't changed in seventy or eighty years. Your body changes, but you don't change at all. And that, of course, causes great confusion.
Lessing, Doris

37.
The secret to staying young is to live honestly, eat slowly, and lie about your age.
Ball, Lucille

38.
Perhaps being old is having lighted rooms inside your head, and people in them, acting. People you know, yet can't quite name.
Larkin, Philip

39.
I have never known a person to live to be one hundred and be remarkable for anything else.
Billings, Josh

40.
The older we get the more we must limit ourselves if we wish to be active.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

41.
The mind that is wise mourns less for what age takes away; than what it leaves behind.
Wordsworth, William

42.
I guess I don't so much mind being old, as I mind being fat and old.
Gabriel, Peter

43.
How can I die? I'm booked.
Burns, George

44.
An archaeologist is the best husband a woman can have; the older she gets the more interested he is in her.
Christie, Agatha

45.
Thirty -- the promise of a decade of loneliness, a thinning list of single men to know, a thinning brief-case of enthusiasm, thinning hair.

46.
These are the soul's changes. I don't believe in aging. I believe in forever altering one's aspect to the sun. Hence my optimism.
Woolf, Virginia

47.
With care, and skill, and cunning art, She parried Time's malicious dart, And kept the years at bay, Till passion entered in her heart and aged her in a day!
Wilcox, Ella Wheeler

48.
There is not a more repulsive spectacle than on old man who will not forsake the world, which has already forsaken him.
Tholuck

49.
I think when the full horror of being fifty hits you, you should stay home and have a good cry.
Bleasdale, Alan

50.
Old age though despised, is coveted by all.
Proverb
