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

We are always the same age inside.

The tragedy of old age is not that one is old, but that one is young.

A man is not old until regrets take the place of dreams.

How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are?

Older, we must move, and stay, and move again, to keep our life-giving ties alive, for this movement is our fountain of age. And there's a freedom in realizing this, a new freedom to move or stay, new necessities and possibilities of choice.

No matter what age you are, or what your circumstances might be, you are special, and you still have something unique to offer. Your life, because of who you are, has meaning.


There are two barriers that often prevent communication between the young and their elders. The first is middle-aged forgetfulness of the fact that they themselves are no longer young. The second is youthful ignorance of the fact that the middle aged are still alive.

You know you're getting old when a
ll the names in your black book have M. D. after them.

We accumulate our opinions at an age when our understanding is at its weakest.

My idea of Hell is to be young again.

To get back my youth I would do anything in the world, except take exercise, get up early, or be respectable.

It is an illusion that youth is happy, an illusion of those who have lost it.

As we advance in life it becomes more and more difficult, but in fighting the difficulties the inmost strength of the heart is developed.

We ask for long life, but 'tis deep life, or noble moments that signify. Let the measure of time be spiritual, not mechanical.

Youth has no age.

The mind that is wise mourns less for what age takes away; than what it leaves behind.

The problem with getting older is you still remember how things used to be.

Grow old along with me! The best is yet to be.

The old begin to complain of the conduct of the young when they themselves are no longer able to set a bad example.

First you are young; then you are middle-aged; then you are old; then you are wonderful.

None are so old as those who have outlived enthusiasm.

You can judge your age by the amount of pain you feel when you come in contact with a new idea.


How pleasant is the day when we give up striving to be young -- or slender.

Live your life and forget your 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.

Age is something that doesn't matter, unless you are a cheese.

Old age is fifteen years older than I am.

The great thing about getting older is that you don't lose all the other ages you've been.

I am long on ideas, but short on time. I expect to live to be only about a hundred.

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

Yeah Ben, what he said.
