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

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

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

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

A man growing old becomes a child again.

None are so old as those who have outlived enthusiasm.

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

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

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

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