Best Quotes about Age and aging
A man is not old as long as he is seeking something.
Rostand, Jean
The foolishness of old age does not characterize all who are old, but only the foolish.
Cicero, Marcus T.
Old age is an insult. It's like being smacked.
Durrell, Lawrence
At twenty you have many desires which hide the truth, but beyond forty there are only real and fragile truths --your abilities and your failings.
Depardieu, Gerard
The person of wisdom is the person of years.
Young
It is not by the gray of the hair that one knows the age of the heart.
Bulwer-Lytton, Edward G.
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
How beautifully leaves grow old. How full of light and color are their last days.
Burroughs, John
Men of my age live in a state of continual desperation.
Mcdonald, Trevor
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
Among the virtues and vices that make up the British character, we have one vice, at least, that Americans ought to view with sympathy. For they appear to be the only people who share it with us. I mean our worship of the antique. I do not refer to beauty or even historical association. I refer to age, to a quantity of years.
Golding, William
There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of the people you love. When you learn to tap into this source, you will truly have defeated age.
Loren, Sophia

Hoffer, Eric
Old men should have more care to end life well than to live long.
Brown, Captain J.
We are happier in many ways when we are old than when we were young. The young sow wild oats. The old grow sage.
Churchill, Winston
A man ninety years old was asked to what he attributed his longevity. I reckon, he said, with a twinkle in his eye,it because most nights I went to bed and slept when I should have sat up and worried.
Kent, Dorothea
Now that I am sixty, I see why the idea of elder wisdom has passed from currency.
Updike, John
You can free yourself from aging by reinterpreting your body and by grasping the link between belief and biology.
Chopra, Deepak
In mid-life the man wants to see how irresistible he still is to younger women. How they turn their hearts to stone and more or less commit a murder of their marriage I just don't know, but they do.
Neal, Patricia
No one is so old as to think he cannot live one more year.
Cicero, Marcus T.
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
Old age is ready to undertake tasks that youth shirked because they would take too long.
Maugham, W. Somerset
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
Gray hairs seem to my fancy like the soft light of the moon, silvering over the evening of life.
Richter, Jean Paul
In the name of Hippocrates, doctors have invented the most exquisite form of torture ever known to man: survival.
Bunuel, Luis
The outer passes away; the innermost is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
Carlyle, Thomas
The disappointment of manhood succeeds the delusion of youth.
Disraeli, Benjamin
Being seventy is not a sin.
Meir, Golda
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.
The woman who tells her age is either too young to have anything to lose or too old to have anything to gain.
Proverb, Chinese
There are only three ages for women in Hollywood--Babe, District Attorney, and Driving Miss Daisy.
Hawn, Goldie
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
People of age object too much, consult too long, adventure too little, repent too soon and seldom drive business home to it's conclusion, but content themselves with a mediocrity of success.
Bacon, Francis
Middle age is youth without levity, and age without decay.
Defoe, Daniel
I think middle-age is the best time, if we can escape the fatty degeneration of the conscience which often sets in at about fifty.
Inge, Dean William R.
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
Old age is not a disease -- it is strength and survivorship, triumph over all kinds of vicissitudes and disappointments, trials and illnesses.
Kuhn, Maggie
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
Grow old with me the best is yet to come.
Browning, Robert
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.

Time and trouble will tame an advanced young woman, but an advanced old woman is uncontrollable by any earthly force.
Sayers, Dorothy L.
It is only necessary to grow old to become more charitable and even indulgent. I see no fault committed by others that I have not committed myself.
