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

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

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

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

Wrinkles should merely indicate where smiles have been.

A man growing old becomes a child again.

None are so old as those who have outlived enthusiasm.

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

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