A man growing old becomes a child again.

Every man over forty is a scoundrel.

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

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

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

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

Youth is when you're allowed to stay up late on New Year's Eve. Middle age is when you're forced to.

Wrinkles should merely indicate where smiles have been.

When grace is joined with wrinkles, it is adorable. There is an unspeakable dawn in happy old age.

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