Youth is when you`re allowed to stay up late on New Year`s Eve. Middle age is when you`re forced to.

Never lose sight of the fact that old age needs so little but needs that little so much.

He has spent all his life in letting down empty buckets into empty wells; and he is frittering away his age in trying to draw them up again.

Who well lives, long lives; for this age of ours should not be numbered by years, days, and hours.

Old age lives minutes slowly, hours quickly; childhood chews hours and swallows minutes.

Our children may save us if they are taught to care properly for the planet; but if not, it may be back to the Ice Age or the caves from where we first emerged. Then we`ll have to view the universe above from a cold, dark place. No more jet skis, nuclear weapons, plastic crap, broken pay phones, drugs, cars, waffle irons, or television. Come to think of it, that might not be a bad idea.
