It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

The young man knows the rules, but the old man knows the exceptions.

Oliver Wendell Holmes

To a father growing old nothing is dearer than a daughter.

Euripides

A birthday is just another day where you go to work and people give you love. Age is just a state of mind, and you are as old as you think you are. You have to count your blessings and be happy.

Abhishek Bachchan

Cherish all your happy moments; they make a fine cushion for old age.

Booth Tarkington

When we grow old, there can only be one regret - not to have given enough of ourselves.

Eleonora Duse

How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are?

Satchel Paige

All things on earth point home in old October; sailors to sea, travellers to walls and fences, hunters to field and hollow and the long voice of the hounds, the lover to the love he has forsaken.

Thomas Wolfe

Every once in a while, a new technology, an old problem, and a big idea turn into an innovation.

Dean Kamen

I used to do my best thinking while staring out airplane windows. The seat-back video system put a stop to that. Now I sit and watch old' Friends' and 'Everybody Loves Raymond' episodes. Walking is good, but here again, technology has interfered. I like to listen to iTunes while I walk home. I guess I don't think anymore.

What is extraordinary about contemporary art is the energy — it has our energy. New energy. Pieces hundreds of years old are beautiful from an aesthetic point of view, but without our modern energy.

Victor Pinchuk

Robert Louis Stevenson

The sky is always there for me, while my life has been going through many, many changes. When I look up the sky, it gives me a nice feeling, like looking at an old friend.

Yoko Ono

It is not how old you are, but how you are old.

Jules Renard

The sacred rights of mankind are not to be rummaged for among old parchments or musty records. They are written, as with a sunbeam, in the whole volume of human nature, by the hand of the divinity itself; and can never be erased.

Alexander Hamilton

Many believe — and I believe — that I have been designated for this work by God. In spite of my old age, I do not want to give it up; I work out of love for God and I put all my hope in Him.

Michelangelo

1

There is a part of me that will forever want to be walking under autumn leaves, carrying a briefcase containing the works of Shakespeare and Yeats and a portable chess set. I will pass an old tree under which once on a summer night I lay on the grass with a fragrant young woman and we quoted e.e. cummings back and forth.

Roger Ebert

You are as young as your self-confidence, as old as your fears; as young as your hope, as old as your despair.
