To teach how to live without certainty and yet without being paralysed by hesitation is perhaps the chief thing that philosophy in our age can do for those who study it.

I suppose when they reach a certain age some men are afraid to grow up. It seems the older the men get the younger their new wives get.

Dressing up is a bore. At a certain age you decorate yourself to attract the opposite sex and at a certain age I did that. But I'm past that age.

Reading after a certain age diverts the mind too much from its creative pursuits. Any man who reads too much and uses his own brain too little falls into lazy habits of thinking.

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.

Alas after a certain age every man is responsible for his face.
