Old
age has deformities enough of its own. It should
never add to them the deformity of vice.
-- Cato The Elder
BC 234-149, Roman
Statesman, Orator
An
aged Christian, with the snow of time upon his head,
may remind us that those points of earth are whitest
which are nearest to heaven.
-- Edwin Hubbel

The
heart never grows better by age; I fear rather
worse, always harder. A young liar will be an old
one, and a young knave will only be a greater knave
as he grows older.
-- Lord Chesterfield
1694-1773, British
Statesman, Author
Youth
is the period in which a man can be hopeless. The
end of every episode is the end of the world. But
the power of hoping through everything, the
knowledge that the soul survives its adventures,
that great inspiration comes to the middle-aged.
-- Gilbert K.
Chesterton
