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

I don't believe one grows older. I think that what happens early on in life is that at a certain age one stands still and stagnates.

A man growing old becomes a child again.

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

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

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

When grace is joined with wrinkles, it is adorable. There is an unspeakable dawn in happy old age.

Age is a very high price to pay for maturity.

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

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