Like everyone else who makes the mistake of getting older, I begin each day with coffee and obituaries.

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

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.

None are so old as those who have outlived enthusiasm.

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

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

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

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

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