Motivational Quotes
Age and aging
I think in twenty years I'll be looked at like Bob Hope. Doing those president jokes and golf shit. It scares me.

Best Quotes about Age and aging
Not till the fire is dying in the grate, Look we for any kinship with the stars. Oh, wisdom never comes when it is gold, And the great price we paid for it full worth: We have it only when we are half earth. Little avails that coinage to the old!
Meredith, George
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
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
Age is a question of mind over matter. If you don't mind, age don't matter.
Paige, Leroy ''Satchel''
When grace is joined with wrinkles, it is adorable. There is an unspeakable dawn in happy old age.
Hugo, Victor
Nobody expects to trust his body overmuch after the age of fifty.
Hoagland, Edward
Growing old is like being increasingly penalized for a crime you haven't committed.
Powell, Anthony
If youth knew; if age could.
Estienne, Henri
Middle age is youth without levity, and age without decay.
Defoe, Daniel
The nearer people approach old age the closer they return to a semblance of childhood, until the time comes for them to depart this life, again like children, neither tired of living nor aware of death.
Erasmus, Desiderius
I have lived long enough. My way of life is to fall into the sere, the yellow leaf, and that which should accompany old age, as honor, love, obedience, troops of friends I must not look to have.
Shakespeare, William
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.
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
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
When your friends begin to flatter you on how young you look, it's a sure sign you're getting old.
Twain, Mark
Old age is a shipwreck.
Gaulle, Charles De
The tendency of old age to the body, say the physiologists, is to form bone. It is as rare as it is pleasant to meet with an old man whose opinions are not ossified.
Boyse, J. F.
Old age, especially an honored old age, has so great authority, that this is of more value than all the pleasures of youth.
Cicero, Marcus T.
Old age adds to the respect due to virtue, but it takes nothing from the contempt inspired by vice; it whitens only the hair.
Senn, J. P.
You must become an old man in good time if you wish to be an old man long.
Cicero, Marcus T.
Old age is like everything else. To make a success of it, you've got to start young.
Astaire, Fred
To grow old is to grow common. 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
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
Men of my age live in a state of continual desperation.
Mcdonald, Trevor
A woman would rather visit her own grave than the place where she has been young and beautiful after she is aged and ugly.
Harris, Corra May
Old age has its pleasures, which, though different, are not less than the pleasures of youth.
Maugham, W. Somerset
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
Old people love to give good advice to console themselves for no longer being able to set a bad example.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De
I'm like old wine. They don't bring me out very often, but I'm well preserved.
Kennedy, Rose F.
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.
I have never known a person to live to be one hundred and be remarkable for anything else.
Billings, Josh
One of the most important phases of maturing is that of growth from self-centering to an understanding relationship to others. A person is not mature until he has both an ability and a willingness to see himself as one among others and to do unto those others as he would have them do to him.
Overstreet, Harry A.
What a man knows at fifty that he did not know at twenty is for the most part incommunicable.
Stevenson, Adlai E.
Few women, I fear, have had such reason as I have to think the long sad years of youth were worth living for the sake of middle age.
Eliot, George
Life begins at 40 -- but so do fallen arches, rheumatism, faulty eyesight, and the tendency to tell a story to the same person, three or four times.
Feather, William
An old man loved is winter with flowers.
Proverb, German
We pay when old for the excesses of youth.
Proverb
There's no such thing as old age, there is only sorrow.
Wharton, Edith
Old men should have more care to end life well than to live long.
Brown, Captain J.
From the middle of life onward, only he remains vitally alive who is ready to die with life.
Jung, Carl
The real sadness of fifty is not that you change so much but that you change so little.
Lerner, Max
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
In the name of Hippocrates, doctors have invented the most exquisite form of torture ever known to man: survival.
Bunuel, Luis
Live your life and forget your age.
Peale, Norman Vincent
Old age has a great sense of calm and freedom. When the passions have relaxed their hold and have escaped, not from one master, but from many.
Plato
Old age is not a disease -- it is strength and survivorship, triumph over all kinds of vicissitudes and disappointments, trials and illnesses.
Kuhn, Maggie
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
An aged man is but a paltry thing, a tattered coat upon a stick
Yeats, William Butler
Old age is ready to undertake tasks that youth shirked because they would take too long.
Maugham, W. Somerset
A stockbroker urged me to buy a stock that would triple its value every year. I told him, At my age, I don't even buy green bananas.
Pepper, Claude D.
