Best Quotes about Age and aging
A man's as old as he's feeling. A woman as old as she looks.
Collins, Mortimer
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
You end up as you deserve. In old age you must put up with the face, the friends, the health, and the children you have earned.
Weldon, Fay
An archaeologist is the best husband a woman can have; the older she gets the more interested he is in her.
Christie, Agatha
One of those men who reach such an acute limited excellence at twenty-one that everything afterward savors of anti-climax.
At twenty a man is a peacock, at thirty a lion, at forty a camel, at fifty a serpent, at sixty a dog, at seventy an ape, at eighty a nothing at all.
Gracian, Baltasar
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
Age is something that doesn't matter, unless you are a cheese
Burke, Billie
Youth is the gift of nature, but age is a work of art.
Kanin, Garson
When we are young we take pains to be agreeable, and when we are old we take pains not to be disagreeable.
A woman's always younger than a man at equal years.
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett
Old age is like flying through a storm. Once you're aboard, there's nothing you can do.
Meir, Golda
Nobody grows old merely by living a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.
Ullman, Samuel
To me -- old age is always ten years older than I am.
Buruch, Andre B.
Childhood itself is scarcely more lovely than a cheerful, kindly, sunshiny old age.
Child, Lydia M.
Though I look old, yet I am strong and lusty; for in my youth I never did apply hot and rebellious liquors in my blood; and did not, with unbashful forehead, woo the means of weakness and debility: therefore my age is as a lusty winter, frosty but kindly.
Shakespeare, William
Seek ye counsel of the aged for their eyes have looked on the faces of the years and their ears have hardened to the voices of Life. Even if their counsel is displeasing to you, pay heed to them.
Gibran, Kahlil
You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.
Brown, Les
To resist the frigidity of old age, one must combine the body, the mind, and the heart. And to keep these in parallel vigor one must exercise, study, and love.
Bonstettin
Now that I am sixty, I see why the idea of elder wisdom has passed from currency.
Updike, John
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.
Middle age is youth without levity, and age without decay.
Defoe, Daniel
The golden age is before us, not behind us.
Simon, St.
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.
Live your life and forget your age.
Peale, Norman Vincent
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
Gray hairs seem to my fancy like the soft light of the moon, silvering over the evening of life.
Richter, Jean Paul
I will never be an old man. To me, old age is always 15 years older than I am.
Baruch, Bernard M.
You're only young once, but you can be immature forever.
Greier, John
It takes a long time to become young.
Picasso, Pablo
She was a handsome woman of forty-five and would remain so for many years.
Brookner, Anita
It was one of the deadliest and heaviest feelings of my life to feel that I was no longer a boy. From that moment I began to grow old in my own esteem --and in my esteem age is not estimable.
Byron, Lord
Grow old with me the best is yet to come.
Browning, Robert
That man never grows old who keeps a child in his heart.
Steele, Sir Richard
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
The complete life, the perfect pattern, includes old age as well as youth and maturity. The beauty of the morning and the radiance of noon are good, but it would be a very silly person who drew the curtains and turned on the light in order to shut out the tranquillity of the evening. Old age has its pleasures, which, though different, are not less than the pleasures of youth.
Maugham, W. Somerset
Old age is a tyrant, who forbids, under pain of death, the pleasures of youth.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De
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
I refuse to admit that I am more than 52, even if that makes my children illegitimate.
Astor, Lady Nancy
Old age is like everything else. To make a success of it, you've got to start young.
Astaire, Fred
There's no such thing as old age, there is only sorrow.
Wharton, Edith
What's a man's age? He must hurry more, that's all; Cram in a day, what his youth took a year to hold.
Browning, Robert
Youth is a blunder, manhood is a struggle and old age a regret.
Disraeli, Benjamin
An important antidote to American democracy is American gerontocracy. The positions of eminence and authority in Congress are allotted in accordance with length of service, regardless of quality. Superficial observers have long criticized the United States for making a fetish of youth. This is unfair. Uniquely among modern organs of public and private administration, its national legislature rewards senility.
Galbraith, John Kenneth
No one is so old as to think he cannot live one more year.
Cicero, Marcus T.
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
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
Old age has its pleasures, which, though different, are not less than the pleasures of youth.
Maugham, W. Somerset
With mirth and laughter let old wrinkles come. [Merchant Of Venice]
Shakespeare, William
How beautifully leaves grow old. How full of light and color are their last days.
Burroughs, John
