Age and aging

Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.
- Ullman, Samuel
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''

2.
As for old age, embrace and love it. It abounds with pleasure if you know how to use it. The gradually declining years are among the sweetest in a man's life, and I maintain that, even when they have reached the extreme limit, they have their pleasure still.
Seneca

3.
Live your life and forget your age.
Peale, Norman Vincent

4.
Study until twenty five, investigate until forty, profession until sixty, at which age I would have him retired on a double allowance.
Osler, Sir William

5.
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

6.
Maturity is that time when the mirrors in our mind turn to windows and instead of seeing the reflection of ourselves we see others.

7.
Age is something that doesn't matter, unless you are a cheese
Burke, Billie

8.
There's no such thing as old age, there is only sorrow.
Wharton, Edith

9.
I'm aiming by the time I'm fifty to stop being an adolescent.
Cope, Wendy

10.
Like spring, but it is too young. I like summer, but it is too proud. So I like best of all autumn, because its tone is mellower, its colors are richer, and it is tinged with a little sorrow. Its golden richness speaks not of the innocence of spring, nor the power of summer, but of the mellowness and kindly wisdom of approaching age. It knows the limitations of life and its content.
Lin Yu-tang

11.
People between twenty and forty are not sympathetic. The child has the capacity to do but it can't know. It only knows when it is no longer able to do --after forty. Between twenty and forty the will of the child to do gets stronger, more dangerous, but it has not begun to learn to know yet. Since his capacity to do is forced into channels of evil through environment and pressures, man is strong before he is moral. The world's anguish is caused by people between twenty and forty.
Faulkner, William

12.
The more sand has escaped from the hourglass of our life, the clearer we should see through it.
Paul, Jean

13.
While one finds company in himself and his pursuits, he cannot feel old, no matter what his years may be.
Alcott, Amos Bronson

14.
There are only three ages for women in Hollywood--Babe, District Attorney, and Driving Miss Daisy.
Hawn, Goldie

15.
Middle age is when your age starts to show around your middle.
Hope, Bob

16.
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

17.
The disappointment of manhood succeeds the delusion of youth.
Disraeli, Benjamin

18.
Thirty -- the promise of a decade of loneliness, a thinning list of single men to know, a thinning brief-case of enthusiasm, thinning hair.

19.
Whether sixty or sixteen, there is in every human being's heart the lure of wonder, the unfailing child-like appetite of what's next, and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station; so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long are you young.
Ullman, Samuel

20.
Of all the barbarous middle ages, that which is most barbarous is the middle age of man! it is -- I really scarce know what; but when we hover between fool and sage, and don't know justly what we would be at -- a period something like a printed page, black letter upon foolscap, while our hair grows grizzled, and we are not what we were.
Byron, Lord

21.
Perhaps one has to be very old before one learns to be amused rather than shocked.
Buck, Pearl S.

22.
Age doesn't matter, unless you're cheese.
Burke, Billie

23.
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

24.
You know you're getting old when the candles cost more than the cake.
Hope, Bob

25.
There cannot live a more unhappy creature than an ill-natured old man, who is neither capable of receiving pleasures, nor sensible of conferring them on others.
Temple, Sir William

26.
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

27.
Middle age is when a guy keeps turning off lights for economical rather than romantic reasons.
Cass, Eli

28.
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

29.
Growing old is like being increasingly penalized for a crime you haven't committed.
Powell, Anthony

30.
We lose our hair, our teeth! Our bloom, our ideals.
Beckett, Samuel

31.
We pay when old for the excesses of youth.
Proverb

32.
The age of a woman doesn't mean a thing. The best tunes are played on the oldest fiddles.
Engel, Sigmund Z.

33.
You must become an old man in good time if you wish to be an old man long.
Cicero, Marcus T.

34.
Old age isn't so bad when you consider the alternatives.
Chevalier, Maurice

35.
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

36.
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

37.
Since it is the Other within us who is old, it is natural that the revelation of our age should come to us from outside --from others. We do not accept it willingly.
Beauvoir, Simone De

38.
At 46 one must be a miser; only have time for essentials.
Woolf, Virginia

39.
The outer passes away; the innermost is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
Carlyle, Thomas

40.
Gray hairs seem to my fancy like the soft light of the moon, silvering over the evening of life.
Richter, Jean Paul

41.
An aged man is but a paltry thing, a tattered coat upon a stick
Yeats, William Butler

42.
It is not all bad, this getting old, ripening. After the fruit has got its growth it should juice up and mellow. God forbid I should live long enough to ferment and rot and fall to the ground in a squash.
Carr, Emily

43.
An old-timer is one who remembers when it cost more to run a car than to park it.

44.
An old young man, will be a young old man.
Franklin, Benjamin

45.
The older the fiddler, the sweeter the tune.
Proverb, English

46.
Age is whatever you think it is. You are as old as you think you are.
Ali, Muhammad

47.
Just remember, once you're over the hill you begin to pick up speed.
Schulz, Charles M.

48.
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

49.
To know how to grow old is the master work of wisdom, and one of the most difficult chapters in the great art of living.
Amiel, Henri Frederic

50.
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
