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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Every man over forty is a scoundrel.

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