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

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

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

A man growing old becomes a child again.

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

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

None are so old as those who have outlived enthusiasm.

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

Wrinkles should merely indicate where smiles have been.

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