Age and aging Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Age and aging

1.
Gray hairs are signs of wisdom if you hold your tongue, speak and they are but hairs, as in the young.
Philo

2.
A man is not old as long as he is seeking something.
Rostand, Jean

3.
It's good to be here. At 98, it's good to be anywhere.
Burns, George

4.
A woman past forty should make up her mind to be young; not her face.
Burke, Billie

5.
An aged man is but a paltry thing, a tattered coat upon a stick
Yeats, William Butler

6.
Age should not have its face lifted, but it should rather teach the world to admire wrinkles as the etchings of experience and the firm line of character.
Perry, Ralph B.

7.
I wasted time, and now time doth waste me.
Shakespeare, William

8.
While we look not a that things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen; for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal. [2 Corinthians 4:18]
Bible

9.
At last now you can be what the old cannot recall and the young long for in dreams, yet still include them all.
Jennings, Elizabeth

10.
Age does not depend upon years, but upon temperament and health. Some men are born old, and some never grow up.
Edwards, Tryon

11.
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

12.
Age does not matter if the matter does not age.
Romulo, Carlos Pena

13.
I guess I don't so much mind being old, as I mind being fat and old.
Gabriel, Peter

14.
We lose our hair, our teeth! Our bloom, our ideals.
Beckett, Samuel

15.
Old age is the verdict of life.
Barr, Amelia E.

16.
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

17.
It is old age, rather than death, that is to be contrasted with life. Old age is life's parody, whereas death transforms life into a destiny: in a way it preserves it by giving it the absolute dimension. Death does away with time.
Beauvoir, Simone De

18.
Minds ripen at very different ages.
Montagu, Elizabeth

19.
Old age comes on suddenly, and not gradually as is thought.
Rahel

20.
The older woman's love is not love of herself, nor of herself mirrored in a lover's eyes, nor is it corrupted by need. It is a feeling of tenderness so still and deep and warm that it gilds every grass blade and blesses every fly. It includes the ones who have a claim on it, and a great deal else besides. I wouldn't have missed it for the world.
Greer, Germaine

21.
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

22.
What makes old age hard to bear is not the failing of one's faculties, mental and physical, but the burden of one's memories.
Maugham, W. Somerset

23.
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

24.
Old age is an insult. It's like being smacked.
Durrell, Lawrence

25.
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.

26.
Age is a question of mind over matter. If you don't mind, age don't matter.
Paige, Leroy ''Satchel''

27.
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

28.
When you're 50 you start thinking about things you haven't thought about before. I used to think getting old was about vanity -- but actually it's about losing people you love. Getting wrinkles is trivial.
Oates, Joyce Carol

29.
That old man dies prematurely whose memory records no benefits conferred. They only have lived long who have lived virtuously.
Sheridan, Richard Brinsley

30.
Middle Age is that perplexing time of life when we hear two voices calling us, one saying, Why not? and the other, Why bother?
Harris, Sidney J.

31.
You must become an old man in good time if you wish to be an old man long.
Cicero, Marcus T.

32.
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

33.
Being seventy is not a sin.
Meir, Golda

34.
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.
Hershfield, Harry

35.
Here, with whitened hair, desires failing, strength ebbing out of him, with the sun gone down and with only the serenity and the calm warning of the evening star left to him, he drank to Life, to all it had been, to what it was, to what it would be. Hurrah!
O'Casey, Sean

36.
An old man loved is winter with flowers.
Proverb, German

37.
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

38.
Thirty-five is a very attractive age. London society is full of women of the highest birth who have, of their own free choice, remained thirty-five for years.
Wilde, Oscar

39.
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

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

41.
In middle life, the human back is spoiling for a technical knockout and will use the flimsiest excuse, even a sneeze, to fall apart.
White, Elwyn Brooks

42.
I believe the true function of age is memory. I'm recording as fast as I can.
Brown, Rita Mae

43.
Age does not protect you from love but love to some extent protects you from age.
Moreau, Jeanne

44.
Old age has its pleasures, which, though different, are not less than the pleasures of youth.
Maugham, W. Somerset

45.
When a noble life has prepared old age, it is not decline that it reveals, but the first days of immortality.
Stael, Germaine De

46.
Old men are fond of giving good advice to console themselves for their inability to give bad examples.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

47.
Age is a high price to pay for maturity.
Stoppard, Tom

48.
You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.
Brown, Les

49.
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

50.
It is a toss up whether it is worse to be old and bent or young and broke.
