Aging Well
One of the best parts of growing older? You can flirt all you like since you've become harmless. ~ Liz Smith, The Older the Fiddle The man or woman you really love will never grow old to you. Through the wrinkles of time, through the bowed frame of years, you will always see the dear face and feel the warm heart union of your eternal love. ~ Alfred A. Montapert At 20 a man is a peacock, at 30 a lion, at 40 a camel, at 50 a serpent, at 60 a dog, at 70 an ape, and at 80 nothing. ~ Baltasar Gracián The cruelty of nature is you have to work out harder when you get older ... It should be the other way around: Work out hard when you're a kid you should be able to coast when you get older. But unfortunately you have to do more to stay in the same position. ~ Clint Eastwood In some ways, it would be nice to stay younger, but I feel pretty happy about growing older... Personally, I don't have a lot of the regular hand-ups with getting older that some people do. I've never tried to disguise my age. People find out anyway. ~ Holly Hunter, USA Today, 9/5/03 You don't stop laughing because you grow old; you grow old because you stop laughing. ~ Michael Pritchard Age is an accumulation of life and loss. Adulthood is a series of lines crossed. ~ Ellen Goodman Time and trouble will tame an advanced young woman, but an advanced old woman is uncontrollable by any earthly force. ~ Dorothy L. Sayers
"I never feel age... if you have creative work, you don’t have age or time." ~ Louise Nevelson
