Age and aging

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.
Age and aging Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Age and aging

1.
An aged Christian, with the snow of time upon his head, may remind us that those points of earth are whitest which are nearest to heaven.
Chapin, Edwin Hubbel

2.
As you get older it is harder to have heroes, but it is sort of necessary.
Hemingway, Ernest

3.
The more sand has escaped from the hourglass of our life, the clearer we should see through it.
Paul, Jean

4.
I'm 65 and I guess that puts me in with the geriatrics. But if there were fifteen months in every year, I'd only be 48. That's the trouble with us. We number everything. Take women, for example. I think they deserve to have more than twelve years between the ages of 28 and 40.
Thurber, James

5.
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.

6.
My generation, faced as it grew with a choice between religious belief and existential despair, chose marijuana. Now we are in our Cabernet stage.
Noonan, Peggy

7.
Those who love deeply never grow old; they may die of old age, but they die young.
Pinero, Sir Arthur Wing

8.
Age. That period of life in which we compound for the vices that remain by reviling those we have no longer the vigor to commit.
Bierce, Ambrose

9.
It is only necessary to grow old to become more charitable and even indulgent. I see no fault committed by others that I have not committed myself.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

10.
Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. [2 Corinthians 4:16]
Bible

11.
The end comes when we no longer talk with ourselves. It is the end of genuine thinking and the beginning of the final loneliness.
Hoffer, Eric

12.
Now, aged 50, I'm just poised to shoot forth quite free straight and undeflected my bolts whatever they are.
Woolf, Virginia

13.
Maturity is that time when the mirrors in our mind turn to windows and instead of seeing the reflection of ourselves we see others.

14.
What is the worst of woes that wait on age? What stamps the wrinkle deeper on the brow? To view each loved one blotted from life's page, And be alone on earth, as I am now.
Byron, Lord

15.
To be happy, we must be true to nature, and carry our age along with us.
Hazlitt, William

16.
By the time you're eighty years old you've learned everything. You only have to remember it.
Burns, George

17.
Among the virtues and vices that make up the British character, we have one vice, at least, that Americans ought to view with sympathy. For they appear to be the only people who share it with us. I mean our worship of the antique. I do not refer to beauty or even historical association. I refer to age, to a quantity of years.
Golding, William

18.
The real sadness of fifty is not that you change so much but that you change so little.
Lerner, Max

19.
I am thirty-three -- the age of the good Sans-culotte Jesus; an age fatal to revolutionists.
Desmoulins, Camille

20.
The older the fiddler, the sweeter the tune.
Proverb, English

21.
Youth is the gift of nature, but age is a work of art.
Kanin, Garson

22.
Preparation for old age should begin not later than one's teens. A life which is empty of purpose until 65 will not suddenly become filled on retirement.
Morgan, Arthur E.

23.
The woman who tells her age is either too young to have anything to lose or too old to have anything to gain.
Proverb, Chinese

24.
Old men should have more care to end life well than to live long.
Brown, Captain J.

25.
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

26.
An old man loved is winter with flowers.
Proverb, German

27.
Nature is full of freaks, and now puts an old head on young shoulders, and then takes a young heart heating under fourscore winters.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

28.
I don't generally feel anything until noon, then it's time for my nap.
Hope, Bob

29.
Most people think that aging is irreversible and we know that there are mechanisms even in the human machinery that allow for the reversal of aging, through correction of diet, through anti-oxidants, through removal of toxins from the body, through exercise, through yoga and breathing techniques, and through meditation.
Chopra, Deepak

30.
Father Time is not always a hard parent, and, though he tarries for none of his children, often lays his hand lightly upon those who have used him well; making them old men and women inexorably enough, but leaving their hearts and spirits young and in full vigor. With such people the gray head is but the impression of the old fellow's hand in giving them his blessing, and every wrinkle but a notch in the quiet calendar of a well-spent life.
Dickens, Charles

31.
If youth knew; if age could.
Estienne, Henri

32.
The class distinctions proper to a democratic society are not those of rank or money, still less, as is apt to happen when these are abandoned, of race, but of age.
Auden, W. H.

33.
Old age is like everything else. To make a success of it, you've got to start young.
Astaire, Fred

34.
How can I die? I'm booked.
Burns, George

35.
Gray hairs seem to my fancy like the soft light of the moon, silvering over the evening of life.
Richter, Jean Paul

36.
The mind that is wise mourns less for what age takes away; than what it leaves behind.
Wordsworth, William

37.
For in all the world there are no people so piteous and forlorn as those who are forced to eat the bitter bread of dependency in their old age, and find how steep are the stairs of another man's house. Wherever they go they know themselves unwelcome. Wherever they are, they feel themselves a burden. There is no humiliation of the spirit they are not forced to endure. Their hearts are scarred all over with the stabs from cruel and callous speeches.
Dix, Dorothy

38.
To me -- old age is always ten years older than I am.
Buruch, Andre B.

39.
Every one desires to live long, but no one would be old.
Swift, Jonathan

40.
In my twenties, my pleasures tended to be physical. In my thirties, my pleasures tended to be intellectual. I can't say which was more exquisite.
Kangas, Steve

41.
Age does not depend upon years, but upon temperament and health. Some men are born old, and some never grow up.
Edwards, Tryon

42.
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

43.
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

44.
In youth the days are short and the years are long. In old age the years are short and day's long.
Panin, Nikita Ivanovich

45.
You can judge your age by the amount of pain you feel when you come in contact with a new idea.
Nuveen, John

46.
Some men are born old, and some men never seem so. If we keep well and cheerful, we are always young and at last die in youth even when in years would count as old.
Edwards, Tryon

47.
He is so old that his blood type was discontinued.
Dana, Bill

48.
If the young knew and the old could, there is nothing that couldn't be done.
Proverb

49.
Youth is the period in which a man can be hopeless. The end of every episode is the end of the world. But the power of hoping through everything, the knowledge that the soul survives its adventures, that great inspiration comes to the middle-aged.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.

50.
The excess of our youth are checks written against our age and they are payable with interest thirty years later.
Colton, Charles Caleb
