Abraham Lincoln
And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.
|
Barrie
It matters not how long we live, but how.
|
Bob Hope
You know you are getting old when the candles cost more than the cake.
|
Catherine Pulsifer
You are never too old. One of many examples, Grandma Moses (1860-1961), she started painting in her late 70s. She is best known for her documentary paintings of rural life. If you ever think you are too old, think of Grandma Moses!

Charles Dickens
Father Time is not always a hard parent, and, though he tarries for none of his children, often lays his hand lightly upon those who have used him well; making them old men and women inexorably enough, but leaving their hearts and spirits young and in full vigour. With such people the grey head is but the impression of the old fellow's hand in giving them his blessing, and every wrinkle but a notch in the quiet calendar of a well-spent life.

General Douglas MacArthur
Nobody grows old by merely living a number of years. People grow old by deserting their ideals. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up wrinkles the soul.
|
George Bernard Shaw
Life is no brief candle to me. It is sort of a splendid torch which I have got hold of for a moment, and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations.
|
Golda Meir
Old age is like a plane flying through a storm. Once you are aboard there is nothing you can do about it.
|
James A. Garfield
If wrinkles must be written upon our brows, let them not be written upon the heart. The spirit should not grow old.
|
Josh Billings
In youth we run into difficulties. In old age difficulties run into us.
|
Katharine Graham
No one can avoid aging, but aging productively is something else.
|
Les Brown
You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.
|
Lucille Ball
The secret of staying young is to live honestly, eat slowly, and lie about your age.
|
Maggie Kuhn
Old age is not a disease--it is strength and survivorship, triumph over all kinds of vicissitudes and disappointments, trials and illnesses.
|
Mark Twain
Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don?t mind, it doesn?t matter.
|
Mark Twain
Wrinkles should merely indicate where the smiles have been.
