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

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

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.

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

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

True terror is to wake up one morning and discover that your high school class is running the country.

Every man over forty is a scoundrel.

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

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