Being Old Quotes

I didn't mind getting old when I was young. It's the being old now that's getting to me Picture Quote #1

Being an old radical, I like films like Spartacus. I could relate to the hero Picture Quote #1

I look forward to being older, when what you look like becomes less and less an issue and what you are is the point Picture Quote #1

When you’re young, there’s so much that you can’t take in. It’s pouring over you like a waterfall. When you’re older, it’s less intense, but you’re able to reach out and drink it. I love being older Picture Quote #1

I have never appreciated a quiet moment with a friend as much, a quiet moment with a book and I think part of that is my obsession with being older and time going faster and it’s become increasingly sweeter for me Picture Quote #1

I have no romantic feelings about age. Either you are interesting at any age or you are not. There is nothing particularly interesting about being old-or being young for that matter Picture Quote #1

The mind doesn’t know anything about age, your subconscious mind knows nothing about time or space. And so, I am hanging around young people all the time and I operate like they do. I don’t think of myself as being old Picture Quote #1

The country of the aged is a land few people think very hard and seriously about before the time of life when they sense that they’re arriving there. Somehow, throughout much of life, being old seems to be something that happens to other people Picture Quote #1

The fear of old age is something that one feels when they’re younger. Once you get to being old, you’re already there, so you don’t even think about it anymore Picture Quote #1

Perhaps being old is having lighted rooms inside your head, and people in them, acting. People you know, yet can’t quite name Picture Quote #1

... you spend a much larger part of your life being old, not young. Rules change along the way. The first things to go are those things you thought were eternal Picture Quote #1

He has made me wary of chronological snobbery. That is, he showed me that newness is no virtue and oldness is no vice. Truth and beauty and goodness are not determined by when they exist. Nothing is inferior for being old, and nothing is valuable for being modern. This has freed me from the tyranny of novelty and opened for me the wisdom of the ages Picture Quote #1

This is what I know. I look like my father. My father disappeared when he was seventeen years old. Hannah once told me that there is something unnatural about being older than your father ever got to be. When you can say that at the age of seventeen, it’s a different kind of devastating Picture Quote #1

I think that I probably inevitably fetishize nature, although I try not to, because it’s kind of embarrassing, repulsive behavior. I think it’s just an extension of me being old-fashioned Picture Quote #1

I’ve gotten thicker skin mostly from being older. You just stop caring quite as much about everything Picture Quote #1

I think the problems with being older come when your body cannot do what your mind wants. Then, Houston, we have a problem Picture Quote #1
