Age

This wine is forty years old. It certainly doesn't show its age

Study until twenty five, investigate until forty, profession until sixty, at which age I would have him retired on a double allowance

Grow old along with me! The best is yet to be, the last of life, for which the first was made

A man over ninety is a great comfort to all his elderly neighbors: he is a picket-guard at the extreme outpost; and the young folks of sixty and seventy feel that the enemy must get by him before he can come near their camp

Every man over forty is a scoundrel

Old minds are like old horses; you must exercise them if you wish to keep them in working order

Young men have a passion for regarding their elders as senile

He who would pass his declining years with honor and comfort, should, when young, consider that he may one day become old, and remember when he is old, that he has once been young

Young men soon give, and soon forget affronts, old age is slow in both

It is the privilege of posterity to set matters right between those antagonists who, by their rivalry for greatness, divided a whole age

There is not a more unhappy being than a superannuated idol

Be wise with speed; a fool at forty is a fool indeed

Age is opportunity no less than youth itself

We don't understand life any better at forty than at twenty, but we know it and admit it

A man should be taller, older, heavier, uglier, and hoarser than his wife

I have more memories than if I were a thousand years old

If you observe, people always live for ever when there is an annuity to be paid them.

The post office has a great charm at one point of our lives. When you have lived to my age, you will begin to think letters are never worth going through the rain for

The best wine is the oldest, the best water the newest.

To create a little flower is the labour of ages
