Quotations
Quote of the Day

Forty is the old age of youth, fifty is the youth of old age.

View quotes by Hosea Ballou

It is old age, rather than death, that is to be contrasted with life. Old age is life's parody, whereas death transforms life into a destiny: in a way it preserves it by giving it the absolute dimension. Death does away with time.
View quotes by Simone De Beauvoir

Old age realizes the dreams of youth: look at Dean Swift; in his youth he built an asylum for the insane, in his old age he was himself an inmate.
View quotes by Soren Kierkegaard

Forty is the old age of youth; fifty is the youth of old age
View quotes by Victor Hugo

Tell me what you find better, or more honourable than age. Is not wisdom entailed upon it? Take the pre-eminence of it in everything; and in an old friend, in old wine, in an old pedigree
View quotes by Shackerley Marmion

Until you reach a certain age, they don't print your age. Then suddenly when you're 40, they print your age. It's really weird. It's like, 'She's only got a few more minutes.'
View quotes by Madonna

I'm not interested in age. People who tell me their age are silly. You're as old as you feel.
View quotes by Henri-Frederic Amiel

Those who love deeply never grow old; they may die of old age, but they die young.
View quotes by Arthur Wing Pinero

They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old.
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
View quotes by Laurence Binyon

Let me advise thee not to talk of thyself as being old. There is something in Mind Cure, after all, and if thee continually talks of thyself as being old, thee may perhaps bring on some of the infirmities of age. At least I would not risk it if I were thee.
View quotes by Hannah Whitall Smith

The tendency of old age to the body, say the physiologists, is to form bone. It is as rare as it is pleasant to meet with an old man whose opinions are not ossified.
View quotes by Bob Wells

Old soldiers never die; they just fade away. And like the old soldier in that ballad, I now close my military career and just fade away, an old soldier who tried to do his duty as God gave him the sight to see that duty.
View quotes by Douglas Macarthur

When I was young, the old regarded me as an outrageous young fellow, and now that I'm old the young regard me as an outrageous old fellow.
View quotes by Fred Hoyle

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way (A Tale of Two Cities)
View quotes by Charles Dickens

This is not the age of pamphleteers. It is the age of the engineers. The spark-gap is mightier than the pen. Democracy will not be salvaged by men who talk fluently, debate forcefully and quote aptly. (Science for the Citizen)
View quotes by Lancelot Hogben

Age does not protect you from love, but love, to some extent, protects you from age.
View quotes by Jeanne Moreau

We aren't in an information age, we are in an entertainment age.
View quotes by Anthony Robbins

Age does not matter if the matter does not age.
View quotes by Jean Paul Richter

Age does not protect you from love. But love, to some extent, protects you from age.
View quotes by Anais Nin

I mention my age because I find people in this country - women, not men, of course - women are so troubled by their age. There's a culture of youth, and it's a phony culture.
View quotes by Teresa Heinz-Kerry
