One of the delights known to age, and beyond the grasp of youth, is that of Not Going.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Ageing is inevitable, and the idea that we can be eternally youthful is the pitfall of our society.
Old age has its pleasures, which, though different, are not less than the pleasures of youth.
Aging is not lost youth but a new stage of opportunity and strength.
The exhaustion of old age is something people who are younger don't fully appreciate.
Youth is a silly, vapid state, Old age with fears and ills is rife; This simple boon I beg of Fate - A thousand years of Middle Life.
It is not sufficient for the young to devote their enthusiasm, their courage, their ambition, their self-sacrifice to the great ideas of the time; the young must not only preserve but increase their powers if they are to be really equal to their eternal task: that of drawing the age in advance.
To be old can be glorious if one has not unlearned how to begin.
Youth is a blunder; Manhood a struggle, Old Age a regret.
There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age.
Old age is a tyrant, who forbids, under pain of death, the pleasures of youth.
