Old Men Quotes

Old men delight in giving good advice as a consolation for the fact that they can no longer set bad examples Picture Quote #1

Old men are always advising young men to save money. That is bad advice. Don’t save every nickel. Invest in yourself. I never saved a dollar until I was forty years old Picture Quote #1

In science, the old men are usually wrong. But in politics, the old men are wise, counsel caution, and in the end are often right Picture Quote #1

The most critical need of the church at this moment is men, bold men, free men. The church must seek, in prayer and much humility, the coming again of men made of the stuff of which prophets and martyrs are made Picture Quote #1

Can’t keep track of it no more, son’s becoming husbands to their mothers, and old men turning your daughters into whores Picture Quote #1

Old men tend to forget what thought was like in their youth; they forget the quickness of the mental jump, the daring of the youthful intuition, the agility of the fresh insight. They become accustomed to the more plodding varieties of reason, and because this is more than made up by the accumulation of experience, old men think themselves wiser than the young Picture Quote #1

Certain old men prefer to rise at dawn, taking a cold bath and a long walk with an empty stomach and otherwise mortifying the flesh. They then point with pride to these practices as the cause of their sturdy health and ripe years; the truth being that they are hearty and old, not because of their habits, but in spite of them. The reason we find only robust persons doing this thing is that it has killed all the others who have tried it Picture Quote #1

An emperor knows how to govern when poets are free to make verses, people to act plays, historians to tell the truth, ministers to give advice, the poor to grumble at taxes, students to learn lessons aloud, workmen to praise their skill and seek work, people to speak of anything, and old men to find fault with everything Picture Quote #1

Dawn, n. The time when men of reason go to bed. Certain old men prefer to rise at about that time, taking a cold bath and a long walk with an empty stomach, and otherwise mortifying the flesh Picture Quote #1

Some old men, by continually praising the time of their youth, would almost persuade us that there were no fools in those days; but unluckily they are left themselves for examples Picture Quote #1

Old men only lie in wait for people to ask them to talk. Then they rattle on like a rusty elevator wheezing up a shaft Picture Quote #1

Beware, charlie, old men only lie in wait for people to ask them to talk. Then they rattle on like a rusty elevator wheezing up a shaft Picture Quote #1

If there’s one thing I can’t bear, it’s when hundreds of old men come creeping in through the window in the middle of the night and throw all manner of garbage over me. I can’t bear that Picture Quote #1

Age is my alarm clock, the old man said. why do old men wake so early? Is it to have one longer day? I don’t know, the boy said. all I know is that young boys sleep late and hard Picture Quote #1

Old age is never honored among us, but only indulged, as childhood is; and old men lose one of the most precious rights of man, that of being judged by their peers Picture Quote #1

Old women snore violently. They are like bodies into which bizarre animals have crept at night; the animals are vicious, bawdy, noisy. How they snore! There is no shame to their snoring. Old women turn into old men Picture Quote #1

Old men always advise the young to save money. This is bad advice. Invest in yourself. I didn’t save a penny before I reached forty years Picture Quote #1
