“Youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind. It is
not a matter of ripe cheeks, red lips, supple knees; it is a temper of the
will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is a freshness
of the deep springs of life. Youth means a temperamental predominance of
courage over timidity, of the appetite of adventure over the love of ease.” -Samuel Ullman
“In youth we learn; in age we understand.” Marie Von Ebner-Eschenbach

age.” -French proverb

age is that it’s such a nice change from being young.” -Dorothy Canfield Fisher

twenty has wasted thirty years of his life.” -Muhammad Ali
“It is a mistake to regard age as a downhill grade toward
dissolution. The reverse is true. As one grows older one climbs with surprising
strides.” -George Sand

founded upon fallacy. The happiest person is the person who thinks the most
interesting thoughts, and we grow happier as we grow older.” -William Lyon Phelps
