Youth is the gift of nature, but age is a work of art.

Forty is the old age of youth fifty the youth of old age.

Old age is like everything else. To make a success of it, you've got to start young.

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

How incessant and great are the ills with which a prolonged old age is replete.

Growing old is no more than a bad habit which a busy person has no time to form.

A man growing old becomes a child again.

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

I don't feel old. I don't feel anything till noon. That's when it's time for my nap.

Age appears to be best in four things old wood best to burn, old wine to drink, old friends to trust, and old authors to read.
