I will never be an old man. To me, old age is always 15 years older than I am.

A man growing old becomes a child again.

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

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

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

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

Age is a very high price to pay for maturity.

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

Bashfulness is an ornament to youth, but a reproach to old age.

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