Age Quotes

There are billions of men in the world, probably millions near my age. Maybe hundreds who are compatible with me. Maybe at least a dozen who would want to date me. There’s got to be at least five on the continent whom I could probably marry. So why am I so hung up on this one guy? Picture Quote #1

What folly made young people, even those in middle age, think they were immortal? How much better, their lives, if they could remember the end.

School has become the world religion of a modernized proletariat, and makes futile promises of salvation to the poor of the technological age Picture Quote #1

The truth is, part of me is every age. I delight in being a child when it’s appropriate to be a child. I delight in being a wise old man when it’s appropriate to be a wise old man. Think of all I can be! I am every age, up to my own Picture Quote #1

So childhood too feels good at first, before one happens to notice the terrible sameness, age after age Picture Quote #1

Death is not an evil, because it frees us from all evils, and while it takes away good things, it takes away also the desire for them.

Nevertheless, we fear death, and we desire old age Picture Quote #1

Everyone has their own story and that’s something I hope for everyone to learn at a young enough age. Just because something is right for someone else doesn’t make it right for you. It’s cooler to be yourself Picture Quote #1

My dear, old age is like an airplane flying in a storm. Once you’re in it there’s nothing you can do. You can’t stop a plane, you can’t stop a storm, you can’t stop time. So you might as well take it easy, with wisdom Picture Quote #1
