Age and aging

But it's hard to be hip over thirty when everyone else is nineteen, when the last dance we learned was the Lindy, and the last we heard, girls who looked like Barbara Streisand were trying to do something about it.
- Viorst, Judith
Age and aging Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Age and aging

1.
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

2.
There is not a more repulsive spectacle than on old man who will not forsake the world, which has already forsaken him.
Tholuck

3.
Maturity is that time when the mirrors in our mind turn to windows and instead of seeing the reflection of ourselves we see others.

4.
Age is a question of mind over matter. If you don't mind, age don't matter.
Paige, Leroy ''Satchel''

5.
Nature should have been pleased to have made this age miserable, without making it also ridiculous.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

6.
It's good to be here. At 98, it's good to be anywhere.
Burns, George

7.
When we are young we take pains to be agreeable, and when we are old we take pains not to be disagreeable.

8.
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

9.
The older the fiddler, the sweeter the tune.
Proverb, English

10.
By the time we hit fifty, we have learned our hardest lessons. We have found out that only a few things are really important. We have learned to take life seriously, but never ourselves.
Dressler, Marie

11.
The real sadness of fifty is not that you change so much but that you change so little.
Lerner, Max

12.
Being seventy is not a sin.
Meir, Golda

13.
Age is a high price to pay for maturity.
Stoppard, Tom

14.
Someday you will read in the papers that Moody is dead. Don't you believe a word of it. At that moment I shall be more alive than I am now. I was born of the flesh in 1837, I was born of the spirit in 1855. That which is born of the flesh may die. That which is born of the Spirit shall live forever.
Moody, Dwight L.

15.
One is rarely an impulsive innovator after the age of sixty, but one can still be a very fine orderly and inventive thinker. One rarely procreates children at that age, but one is all the more skilled at educating those who have already been procreated, and education is procreation of another kind.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.

16.
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

17.
The outer passes away; the innermost is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
Carlyle, Thomas

18.
Some old men, continually praise the time of their youth. In fact, you would almost think that there were no fools in their days, but unluckily they themselves are left as an example.
Pope, Alexander

19.
There are only three ages for women in Hollywood--Babe, District Attorney, and Driving Miss Daisy.
Hawn, Goldie

20.
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

21.
Old age comes on suddenly, and not gradually as is thought.
Rahel

22.
We grow neither better or worse as we get old, but more like ourselves.
Becker, May L.

23.
The person of wisdom is the person of years.
Young

24.
Growing old is like being increasingly penalized for a crime you haven't committed.
Powell, Anthony

25.
Old age is not a matter for sorrow. It is matter for thanks if we have left our work done behind us.
Carlyle, Thomas

26.
What is the worst of woes that wait on age? What stamps the wrinkle deeper on the brow? To view each loved one blotted from life's page, And be alone on earth, as I am now.
Byron, Lord

27.
Age does not matter if the matter does not age.
Romulo, Carlos Pena

28.
My time has been passed viciously and agreeably; at thirty-one so few years months days hours or minutes remain that Carpe Diem is not enough. I have been obliged to crop even the seconds -- for who can trust to tomorrow?
Byron, Lord

29.
A man has every season while a woman only has the right to spring. That disgusts me.
Fonda, Jane

30.
There is no one so old as to not think they may live a day longer.
Cicero, Marcus T.

31.
I will never be an old man. To me, old age is always 15 years older than I am.
Baruch, Bernard M.

32.
The end comes when we no longer talk with ourselves. It is the end of genuine thinking and the beginning of the final loneliness.
Hoffer, Eric

33.
Getting older is no problem. You just have to live long enough.
Marx, Groucho

34.
What a man knows at fifty that he did not know at twenty is for the most part incommunicable.
Stevenson, Adlai E.

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

36.
We lose our hair, our teeth! Our bloom, our ideals.
Beckett, Samuel

37.
You can judge your age by the amount of pain you feel when you come in contact with a new idea.
Nuveen, John

It is not by the gray of the hair that one knows the age of the heart.
Bulwer-Lytton, Edward G.

39.
Aging seems to be the only available way to live a long life.
Auber, Daniel Francois Esprit
