Age and aging Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Age and aging

1.
With the ancient is wisdom; and in length of days understanding. [Job 12:12]
Bible

2.
Live your life and forget your age.
Peale, Norman Vincent

3.
It is not how old you are, but how you are old.
Dressler, Marie

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

5.
I will never give in to old age until I become old. And I'm not old yet!
Turner, Tina

6.
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

7.
There is no one so old as to not think they may live a day longer.
Cicero, Marcus T.

8.
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

9.
How beautifully leaves grow old. How full of light and color are their last days.
Burroughs, John

Beckett, Samuel

No one grows old by living. Only by losing interest in living.
Ray, Marie Beyon

If the young knew and the old could, there is nothing that couldn't be done.
Proverb

13.
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

14.
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.

15.
Age doesn't matter, unless you're cheese.
Burke, Billie

16.
Perfection of means and confusion of goals seem -- in my opinion -- to characterize our age.
Einstein, Albert

17.
The value of old age depends upon the person who reaches it. To some men of early performance it is useless. To others, who are late to develop, it just enables them to finish the job.
Hardy, Thomas

18.
You are young at any age if you are planning for tomorrow.

19.
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

20.
Every man is the creature of the age in which he lives; very few are able to raise themselves above the ideas of the time.
Voltaire

21.
The mind that is wise mourns less for what age takes away; than what it leaves behind.
Wordsworth, William

22.
The trouble with our age is that it is all signpost and no destination.
Kronenberger, Louis

23.
Whether sixty or sixteen, there is in every human being's heart the lure of wonder, the unfailing child-like appetite of what's next, and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station; so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long are you young.
Ullman, Samuel

24.
The more sand has escaped from the hourglass of our life, the clearer we should see through it.
Paul, Jean

25.
Now that I am sixty, I see why the idea of elder wisdom has passed from currency.
Updike, John

26.
The foolishness of old age does not characterize all who are old, but only the foolish.
Cicero, Marcus T.

27.
A man has every season while a woman only has the right to spring. That disgusts me.
Fonda, Jane

28.
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

29.
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.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

30.
I shall soon be six-and-twenty. Is there anything in the future that can possibly console us for not being always twenty-five?
Byron, Lord

31.
Childhood itself is scarcely more lovely than a cheerful, kindly, sunshiny old age.
Child, Lydia M.

32.
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

33.
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)

34.
It really costs me a lot emotionally to watch myself on-screen. I think of myself, and feel like I'm quite young, and then I look at this old man with the baggy chins and the tired eyes and the receding hairline and all that.
Hackman, Gene

35.
Age carries all things away, even the mind.
Virgil

36.
The way you think, the way you behave, the way you eat, can influence your life by 30 to 50 years.
Chopra, Deepak

37.
Being over seventy is like being engaged in a war. All our friends are going or gone and we survive amongst the dead and the dying as on a battlefield.
Spark, Muriel

38.
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

39.
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

40.
Getting old is a fascination thing. The older you get, the older you want to get.
Richards, Keith

41.
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.

42.
What a man knows at fifty that he did not know at twenty is for the most part incommunicable.
Stevenson, Adlai E.

43.
The person of wisdom is the person of years.
Young

44.
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

45.
Thirty -- the promise of a decade of loneliness, a thinning list of single men to know, a thinning brief-case of enthusiasm, thinning hair.

46.
Old age is the most unexpected of all the things that can happen to a man.
Trotsky, Leon

47.
A lady of a certain age, which means certainly aged.
Byron, Lord

48.
A woman's always younger than a man at equal years.
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett

49.
It's good to be here. At 98, it's good to be anywhere.
Burns, George

50.
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
