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

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

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

What most persons consider as virtue, after the age of 40 is simply a loss of energy.

Alas, after a certain age every man is responsible for his face.

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

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

A man growing old becomes a child again.

Old minds are like old horses you must exercise them if you wish to keep them in working order.

I don't feel old. I don't feel anything till noon. That's when it's time for my nap.
