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

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

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

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

As I grow older, I pay less attention to what men say. I just watch what they do.

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

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

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

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.

Old age is like everything else. To make a success of it, you've got to start young.
