Many foxes grow gray but few grow good.
Franklin, Benjamin

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

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

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

25.
If you wouldn't live long, live well; for folly and wickedness shorten life.
Franklin, Benjamin

26.
Growing old is like being increasingly penalized for a crime you haven't committed.
Powell, Anthony

27.
The secret to staying young is to live honestly, eat slowly, and lie about your age.
Ball, Lucille

28.
Time and trouble will tame an advanced young woman, but an advanced old woman is uncontrollable by any earthly force.
Sayers, Dorothy L.

29.
I wake up every morning at nine and grab for the morning paper. Then I look at the obituary page. If my name is not on it, I get up.

He that is not handsome at 20, nor strong at 30, nor rich at 40, nor wise at 50, will never be handsome, strong, rich or wise.
Herbert, George

35.
Every man who has lived for fifty years has buried a whole world or even two; he has grown used to its disappearance and accustomed to the new scenery of another act: but suddenly the names and faces of a time long dead appear more and more often on his way, calling up series of shades and pictures kept somewhere, just in case, in the endless catacombs of the memory, making him smile or sigh, and sometimes almost weep.
Herzen, Alexander

36.
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

The way you think, the way you behave, the way you eat, can influence your life by 30 to 50 years.
Chopra, Deepak

Richards, Keith

40.
An old-timer is one who remembers when it cost more to run a car than to park it.

41.
I have found it to be true that the older I've become the better my life has become.
Limbaugh, Rush

42.
At twenty years of age the will reigns; at thirty, the wit; and at forty, the judgment.

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

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

Barr, Amelia E.

48.

White, Elwyn Brooks

49.
Except ye become as little children, except you can wake on your fiftieth birthday with the same forward-looking excitement and interest in life that you enjoyed when you were five, ye cannot enter the kingdom of God. One must not only die daily, but every day we must be born again.
Sayers, Dorothy L.

50.
Middle age is the time when a man is always thinking that in a week or two he will feel as good as ever.
Marquis, Don
