I'm very accepting with my age. It's like notches on your belt: experience wisdom and a different kind of beauty. There comes a day when you've become comfortable in your skin.

Maybe it is something to do with age but I have become fonder of poetry than of prose.

I love things that age well - things that don't date that stand the test of time and that become living examples of the absolute best.

One of my grandfathers actually having gone out there as a minister decided he would better serve the people as a doctor. So at a very late age - at the age of 38 in fact - he changed course and decided to become a doctor.

We have become a society that can't self-correct that can't address its obvious problems that can't pull out of its nosedive.

We have entered an age in which education is not just a luxury permitting some men an advantage over others. It has become a necessity without which a person is defenseless in this complex industrialized society. We have truly entered the century of the educated man.

The philosophies of one age have become the absurdities of the next and the foolishness of yesterday has become the wisdom of tomorrow.

Have regular hours for work and play make each day both useful and pleasant and prove that you understand the worth of time by employing it well. Then youth will be delightful old age will bring few regrets and life will become a beautiful success.

The heresy of one age becomes the orthodoxy of the next.

The whole business of marshaling one's energies becomes more and more important as one grows older.

As long as any adult thinks that he like the parents and teachers of old can become introspective invoking his own youth to understand the youth before him he is lost.

There is always some specific moment when we become aware that our youth is gone but years after we know it was much later.

Preparation for old age should begin not later than one's teens. A life which is empty of purpose until 65 will not suddenly become filled on retirement.

It takes a long time to become young.

A man growing old becomes a child again.
