Best Quotes about Age and aging
To grow old is to grow common. 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
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.
Preparation for old age should begin not later than one's teens. A life which is empty of purpose until 65 will not suddenly become filled on retirement.
Morgan, Arthur E.
Not till the fire is dying in the grate, Look we for any kinship with the stars. Oh, wisdom never comes when it is gold, And the great price we paid for it full worth: We have it only when we are half earth. Little avails that coinage to the old!
Meredith, George
A woman past forty should make up her mind to be young; not her face.
Burke, Billie
Be wise with speed; a fool at forty is a fool indeed.
Young, Edward
Father Time is not always a hard parent, and, though he tarries for none of his children, often lays his hand lightly upon those who have used him well; making them old men and women inexorably enough, but leaving their hearts and spirits young and in full vigor. With such people the gray head is but the impression of the old fellow's hand in giving them his blessing, and every wrinkle but a notch in the quiet calendar of a well-spent life.
Dickens, Charles
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
The person of wisdom is the person of years.
Young
Gray hairs are signs of wisdom if you hold your tongue, speak and they are but hairs, as in the young.
Philo
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
A person is always startled when he hears himself called old for the first time.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell
Most people think that aging is irreversible and we know that there are mechanisms even in the human machinery that allow for the reversal of aging, through correction of diet, through anti-oxidants, through removal of toxins from the body, through exercise, through yoga and breathing techniques, and through meditation.
Chopra, Deepak
Old people love to give good advice to console themselves for no longer being able to set a bad example.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De
Old age comes on suddenly, and not gradually as is thought.
Rahel
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
The real sadness of fifty is not that you change so much but that you change so little.
Lerner, Max
With sixty staring me in the face, I have developed inflammation of the sentence structure and definite hardening of the paragraphs.
Thurber, James
An aged man is but a paltry thing, a tattered coat upon a stick
Yeats, William Butler
If you carry your childhood with you, you never become older.
Sutzkever, Abraham
A man is not old as long as he is seeking something.
Rostand, Jean
You know you're getting old when all the names in your black book have M. D. after them.
Palmer, Arnold
You can free yourself from aging by reinterpreting your body and by grasping the link between belief and biology.
Chopra, Deepak
No one is so old as to think he cannot live one more year.
Cicero, Marcus T.
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
The trick is growing up without growing old.
Stengel, Casey
Rejoice that you have still have a long time to live, before the thought comes to you that there is nothing more in the world to see.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
Old age has its pleasures, which, though different, are not less than the pleasures of youth.
Maugham, W. Somerset
Perhaps being old is having lighted rooms inside your head, and people in them, acting. People you know, yet can't quite name.
Larkin, Philip
Those who love deeply never grow old; they may die of old age, but they die young.
Pinero, Sir Arthur Wing
The really frightening thing about middle age is that you know you'll grow out of it!
Day, Doris
Getting old is a fascination thing. The older you get, the older you want to get.
Richards, Keith
Nobody grows old merely by living a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.
Ullman, Samuel
Age is whatever you think it is. You are as old as you think you are.
Ali, Muhammad
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
He is so old that his blood type was discontinued.
Dana, Bill
He was then in his fifty-fourth year, when even in the case of poets reason and passion begin to discuss a peace treaty and usually conclude it not very long afterwards.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.
We must not take the faults of our youth with us into old age, for age brings along its own defects.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
Old age is far more than white hair, wrinkles, the feeling that it is too late and the game finished, that the stage belongs to the rising generations. The true evil is not the weakening of the body, but the indifference of the soul.
Maurois, Andre
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
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.
Live your life and forget your age.
Peale, Norman Vincent
If youth knew; if age could.
Estienne, Henri
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
Maturity is the ability to think, speak and act your feelings within the bounds of dignity. The measure of your maturity is how spiritual you become during the midst of your frustrations.
Age does not protect you from love but love to some extent protects you from age.
Moreau, Jeanne
The outer passes away; the innermost is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
Carlyle, Thomas
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
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
As winter strips the leaves from around us, so that we may see the distant regions they formerly concealed, so old age takes away our enjoyments only to enlarge the prospect of the coming eternity.
Richter, Jean Paul
