Ours is essentially a tragic age, so we refuse to take it tragically.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Life's tragedy is that we get old too soon and wise too late.
We virtually never feel our age, but thinking that we should can lead to disaster.
What makes old age so sad is not that our joys but our hopes cease.
It's tragic from how far we've come from 'Hope and Change'.
We live in an age of mediocrity.
We tried not to age, but time had its rage.
Age is not our fault.
It's not catastrophes, murders, deaths, diseases, that age and kill us; it's the way people look and laugh, and run up the steps of omnibuses.
There's no such thing as old age, there is only sorrow.
At its best our age is an age of searchers and discoverers, and at its worst, an age that has domesticated despair and learned to live with it happily.
