Do not grow old, no matter how long you live. Never cease to stand like curious children before the Great Mystery into which we are born.

Once you get older, people stop listening to what you say. It's very agreeable once you get used to it.

Midlife is when you reach the top of the ladder only to find that it was leaning against the wrong wall.

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

Old age is the most unexpected of all the things that happen to a man.

Age is whatever you think it is. You are as old as you think you are.

It's every woman's tragedy that, after a certain age, she looks like a female impersonator.

Middle age is the time when you think that in a week or two you'll feel as good as ever.

By the time a man notices that he is no longer young, his youth has long since left him.

At twenty we worry about what others think of us; at forty we don't care about what others think of us; at sixty we discover they haven't been thinking about us at all.
