Keep
on raging -- to stop the aging.
-- The Delltones
At
twenty you have many desires which hide the truth,
but beyond forty there are only real and fragile
truths --your abilities and your failings.

I am
thirty-three -- the age of the good Sans-culotte
Jesus; an age fatal to revolutionists.
-- Camille Desmoulins
1760-1794, French
Journalist, Revolutionary Leader
Father
Time is not always a hard parent, and, though he
tarries for none of his children, often lays his
hand lightly upon those who have used him well;
making them old men and women inexorably enough, but
leaving their hearts and spirits young and in full
vigor. With such people the gray head is but the
impression of the old fellow's hand in giving them
his blessing, and every wrinkle but a notch in the
quiet calendar of a well-spent life.
-- Charles Dickens
1812-1870, British
