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

Bashfulness is an ornament to youth, but a reproach to old age.

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

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

You can't help getting older, but you don't have to get old.

Old minds are like old horses you must exercise them if you wish to keep them in working order.

Old age has deformities enough of its own. It should never add to them the deformity of vice.

Every man over forty is a scoundrel.

None are so old as those who have outlived enthusiasm.

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