Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter.
Mark Twain
Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young.
Henry Ford
True terror is to wake up one morning and discover that your high school class is running the country.
Kurt Vonnegut
As I grow older, I pay less attention to what men say. I just watch what they do.
Andrew Carnegie
A diplomat is a man who always remembers a woman's birthday but never remembers her age.
Robert Frost
Advice in old age is foolish; for what can be more absurd than to increase our provisions for the road the nearer we approach to our journey's end.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth. Instead of its bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay, it would give us hopes of eternal youth in a better world.
Maurice Chevalier
Age considers; youth ventures.
Rabindranath Tagore
An archaeologist is the best husband a woman can have. The older she gets the more interested he is in her.
Agatha Christie
Nobody grows old merely by living a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.
Samuel Ullman
A man growing old becomes a child again.
Sophocles
Wrinkles should merely indicate where smiles have been.
Mark Twain
After thirty, a body has a mind of its own.
Bette Midler
How incessant and great are the ills with which a prolonged old age is replete.
C. S. Lewis
Old age, believe me, is a good and pleasant thing. It is true you are gently shouldered off the stage, but then you are given such a comfortable front stall as spectator.
Confucius
Age is a very high price to pay for maturity.
Tom Stoppard
Old age is no place for sissies.
Bette Davis
As I approve of a youth that has something of the old man in him, so I am no less pleased with an old man that has something of the youth. He that follows this rule may be old in body, but can never be so in mind.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
None are so old as those who have outlived enthusiasm.
Henry David Thoreau
Like everyone else who makes the mistake of getting older, I begin each day with coffee and obituaries.
Bill Cosby
