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

“To keep the heart unwrinkled, to be hopeful, kind, cheerful, reverent — that is to triumph over old age.”

“I believe in aging gracefully.”

“There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age.”

“To think, when one is no longer young, when one is not yet old, that one is no longer young, that one is not yet old, that is perhaps something.”

“It takes a long time to become young.”
