diplomat, remember
Old age has deformities enough of its own. It should never add to them the deformity of vice.
None are so old as those who have outlived enthusiasm.
old as those who have outlived
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.
Age appears to be best in four things old wood best to burn, old wine to drink, old friends to trust, and old authors to read.
