Quote

The closing years of life are like the end of a masquerade party, when the masks are dropped

Statistics show that of those who contract the habit of eating, very few survive

Some people reach the age of sixty before others

My only fear is that I may live too long. This would be a subject of dread to me

Old age comes on suddenly, and not gradually as is thought

If wrinkles must be written upon our brows, let them not be written upon the heart. The spirit should never grow old
