Aging is not lost youth but a new stage of opportunity and strength.

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

Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter.

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.

Like everyone else who makes the mistake of getting older, I begin each day with coffee and obituaries.

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

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

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

Age is a very high price to pay for maturity.

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