I have lived long enough. My way of life is
to fall into the sere, the yellow leaf, and
that which should accompany old age, as
honor, love, obedience, troops of friends I
must not look to have.
-- William
Shakespeare
1564-1616,
British Poet, Playwright, Actor
Youth is full of sport, age's breath is
short; youth is nimble, age is lame; Youth
is hot and bold, age is weak and cold; Youth
is wild, and age is tame.

Shakespeare

British Poet, Playwright, Actor
With mirth and laughter let old wrinkles
come. [Merchant Of Venice]
-- William
Shakespeare
1564-1616,
British Poet, Playwright, Actor
Though I look old, yet I am strong and
lusty; for in my youth I never did apply hot
and rebellious liquors in my blood; and did
not, with unbashful forehead, woo the means
of weakness and debility: therefore my age
is as a lusty winter, frosty but kindly.
-- William
Shakespeare
