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

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.

You can't help getting older, but you don't have to get old.

An archaeologist is the best husband a woman can have. The older she gets the more interested he is in her.

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

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

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

When grace is joined with wrinkles, it is adorable. There is an unspeakable dawn in happy old age.

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.

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