Motivational Quotes
Age and aging
They are all gone into the world of light, and I alone sit lingering here.

Best Quotes about Age and aging
I'm saving that rocker for the day when I feel as old as I really am.
Eisenhower, Dwight D.
It is a bore, I admit, to be past seventy, for you are left for execution, and are daily expecting the death-warrant; but it is not anything very capital we quit. We are, at the close of life, only hurried away from stomach-aches, pains in the joints, from sleepless nights and unamusing days, from weakness, ugliness, and nervous tremors; but we shall all meet again in another planet, cured of all our defects.
Smith, Sydney
One keeps forgetting old age up to the very brink of the grave.
Colette, Sidonie Gabrielle
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
Age does not depend upon years, but upon temperament and health. Some men are born old, and some never grow up.
Edwards, Tryon
The foolishness of old age does not characterize all who are old, but only the foolish.
Cicero, Marcus T.
As you get older it is harder to have heroes, but it is sort of necessary.
Hemingway, Ernest
We should so provide for old age that it may have no urgent wants of this world to absorb it from meditation on the next. It is awful to see the lean hands of dotage making a coffer of the grave.
Bulwer-Lytton, Edward G.
Old age is a tyrant, who forbids, under pain of death, the pleasures of youth.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De
You know you're getting old when all the names in your black book have M. D. after them.
Palmer, Arnold
Grow old with me the best is yet to come.
Browning, Robert
I will never be an old man. To me, old age is always 15 years older than I am.
Baruch, Bernard M.
One of the many things nobody ever tells you about middle age is that it's such a nice change from being young.
Fisher, Dorothy Canfield
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
Like a morning dream, life becomes more and more bright the longer we live, and the reason of everything appears more clear. What has puzzled us before seems less mysterious, and the crooked paths look straighter as we approach the end.
Richter, Jean Paul
Getting old is a fascination thing. The older you get, the older you want to get.
Richards, Keith
Old age is not a matter for sorrow. It is matter for thanks if we have left our work done behind us.
Carlyle, Thomas
The old -- like children -- talk to themselves, for they have reached that hopeless wisdom of experience which knows that though one were to cry it in the streets to multitudes, or whisper it in the kiss to one's beloved, the only ears that can ever hear one's secrets are one's own!
O'Neill, Eugene
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.
The excess of our youth are checks written against our age and they are payable with interest thirty years later.
Colton, Charles Caleb
The older woman's love is not love of herself, nor of herself mirrored in a lover's eyes, nor is it corrupted by need. It is a feeling of tenderness so still and deep and warm that it gilds every grass blade and blesses every fly. It includes the ones who have a claim on it, and a great deal else besides. I wouldn't have missed it for the world.
Greer, Germaine
I am thirty-three -- the age of the good Sans-culotte Jesus; an age fatal to revolutionists.
Desmoulins, Camille
An archaeologist is the best husband a woman can have; the older she gets the more interested he is in her.
Christie, Agatha
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
Age is a high price to pay for maturity.
Stoppard, Tom
Getting older is like riding a bicycle, if you don't keep pedalling, you'll fall.
Pepper, Claude D.
I don't generally feel anything until noon, then it's time for my nap.
Hope, Bob
I delight in men over seventy. They always offer one the devotion of a lifetime.
Wilde, Oscar
The latter part of a wise person's life is occupied with curing the follies, prejudices and false opinions they contracted earlier.
Swift, Jonathan
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
Age does not protect you from love but love to some extent protects you from age.
Moreau, Jeanne
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
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
Age. That period of life in which we compound for the vices that remain by reviling those we have no longer the vigor to commit.
Bierce, Ambrose
The great secret that all old people share is that you really haven't changed in seventy or eighty years. Your body changes, but you don't change at all. And that, of course, causes great confusion.
Lessing, Doris
Old age is a shipwreck.
Gaulle, Charles De
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
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.
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
A person is always startled when he hears himself called old for the first time.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell
Middle age is when your age starts to show around your middle.
Hope, Bob
There are only three ages for women in Hollywood--Babe, District Attorney, and Driving Miss Daisy.
Hawn, Goldie
It is not how old you are, but how you are old.
Dressler, Marie
Being seventy is not a sin.
Meir, Golda
I always looked to about thirty as the barrier of any real or fierce delight in the passions, and determined to work them out in the younger ore and better veins of the mine --and I flatter myself (perhaps) that I have pretty well done so --and now the dross is coming.
Byron, Lord
You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.
Brown, Les
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
Age carries all things away, even the mind.
Virgil
The outer passes away; the innermost is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
Carlyle, Thomas
If you're starting to look wrinkled, don't worry. It covers the scars.
