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

Alas, after a certain age every man is responsible for his face.

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

Age is not a particularly interesting subject. Anyone can get old. All you have to do is live long enough.

Every man over forty is a scoundrel.

None are so old as those who have outlived enthusiasm.

What most persons consider as virtue, after the age of 40 is simply a loss of energy.

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

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

An archaeologist is the best husband a woman can have. The older she gets the more interested he is in her.
