I don't plan to grow old gracefully. I plan to have face-lifts until my ears meet.

Youth cannot know how age thinks and feels. But old men are guilty if they forget what it was to be young.

If you really want to diminish a candidate, depict him as the foil of his handler. This is as old in American politics as politics itself.

In every decision we make and in every policy we develop, we are committed to protecting those who cannot protect themselves... the very young and the very old.

Nothing is old, nothing is new, save the light of grace underneath which beats a human heart. The way of feeling, of understanding, of loving; the way of seeing the country, the faces that your father saw, that your mother knew. The rest is chimerical.

Don't accept the old order. Get rid of it.

A man is not old as long as he is seeking something.

I was 37 years old. I wanted to support myself by writing.

I was 20 years old at Pearl Harbor. I was in the Navy about a year and four months before the war.

Doctors tell me I have the body of a thirty year old. I know I have the brain of a fifteen year old. If you've got both, you can play baseball.

There is an old saying that money can't buy happiness. If it could, I would buy myself four hits every game.

Old age is like everything else. To make a success of it, you've got to start young.

The only time you really live fully is from thirty to sixty. The young are slaves to dreams; the old servants of regrets. Only the middle-aged have all their five senses in the keeping of their wits.

Old age has deformities enough of its own. It should never add to them the deformity of vice.

I didn't get old on purpose, it just happened. If you're lucky, it could happen to you.
