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

How incessant and great are the ills with which a prolonged old age is replete.

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

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

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

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

You can't help getting older, but you don't have to get old.

Every man over forty is a scoundrel.

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

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