Age and aging
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

Best Quotes about Age and aging
Maturity is the ability to think, speak and act your feelings within the bounds of dignity. The measure of your maturity is how spiritual you become during the midst of your frustrations.
At twenty a man is full of fight and hope. He wants to reform the world. When he is seventy he still wants to reform the world, but he know he can't.
Darrow, Clarence
Many foxes grow gray but few grow good.
Franklin, Benjamin
Gray hairs are signs of wisdom if you hold your tongue, speak and they are but hairs, as in the young.
Philo
One of the aged greatest miseries is that they cannot easily find a companion able to share the memories of the past.
Johnson
Old age realizes the dreams of youth: look at Dean Swift; in his youth he built an asylum for the insane, in his old age he was himself an inmate.
Kierkegaard, S°ren
How earthy old people become --moldy as the grave! Their wisdom smacks of the earth. There is no foretaste of immortality in it. They remind me of earthworms and mole crickets.
Thoreau, Henry David
It is not how old you are, but how you are old.
Dressler, Marie
It's good to be here. At 98, it's good to be anywhere.
Burns, George
Old age has its pleasures, which, though different, are not less than the pleasures of youth.
Maugham, W. Somerset
My time has been passed viciously and agreeably; at thirty-one so few years months days hours or minutes remain that Carpe Diem is not enough. I have been obliged to crop even the seconds -- for who can trust to tomorrow?
Byron, Lord
The outer passes away; the innermost is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
Carlyle, Thomas
When you are younger you get blamed for crimes you never committed and when you're older you begin to get credit for virtues you never possessed. It evens itself out.
Stone, I. F.
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
By the time you're eighty years old you've learned everything. You only have to remember it.
Burns, George
We must not take the faults of our youth with us into old age, for age brings along its own defects.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
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)
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
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
Someday you will read in the papers that Moody is dead. Don't you believe a word of it. At that moment I shall be more alive than I am now. I was born of the flesh in 1837, I was born of the spirit in 1855. That which is born of the flesh may die. That which is born of the Spirit shall live forever.
Moody, Dwight L.
Getting old is a fascination thing. The older you get, the older you want to get.
Richards, Keith
For the last third of life there remains only work. It alone is always stimulating, rejuvenating, exciting and satisfying.
Kollwitz, KaThe
It is not by the gray of the hair that one knows the age of the heart.
Bulwer-Lytton, Edward G.
The latter part of a wise person's life is occupied with curing the follies, prejudices and false opinions they contracted earlier.
Swift, Jonathan
One of those men who reach such an acute limited excellence at twenty-one that everything afterward savors of anti-climax.
Old age is ready to undertake tasks that youth shirked because they would take too long.
Maugham, W. Somerset
We grow neither better or worse as we get old, but more like ourselves.
Becker, May L.
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.
Be wise with speed; a fool at forty is a fool indeed.
Young, Edward
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
A healthy old fellow, who is not a fool, is the happiest creature living.
Steele, Sir Richard
The disappointment of manhood succeeds the delusion of youth.
Disraeli, Benjamin
An old man loved is winter with flowers.
Proverb, German
Grow old along with me! The best is yet to be, The last of life, for which the first was made.
Browning, Robert
I wasted time, and now time doth waste me.
Shakespeare, William
A woman past forty should make up her mind to be young; not her face.
Burke, Billie
O what a thing is age! Death without death's quiet.
Landor, Walter Savage
I am admonished in many ways that time is pushing me inexorably along. I am approaching the threshold of age; in 1977 I shall be 142. This is no time to be flitting about the earth. I must cease from the activities proper to youth and begin to take on the dignities and gravities and inertia proper to that season of honorable senility which is on its way.
Twain, Mark
The mind that is wise mourns less for what age takes away; than what it leaves behind.
Wordsworth, William
From the middle of life onward, only he remains vitally alive who is ready to die with life.
Jung, Carl
That man never grows old who keeps a child in his heart.
Steele, Sir Richard
The worst old age is that of the mind.
Hazlitt, William
The secret to staying young is to live honestly, eat slowly, and lie about your age.
Ball, Lucille
I guess I don't so much mind being old, as I mind being fat and old.
Gabriel, Peter
If you associate enough with older people who do enjoy their lives, who are not stored away in any golden ghettos, you will gain a sense of continuity and of the possibility for a full life.
Mead, Margaret
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
Old age has deformities enough of its own. It should never add to them the deformity of vice.
Cato The Elder
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.
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
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
