As I’ve got older, I feel more confident in my body, so wouldn’t want to tamper with it  (Older Quotes) I’ve become more confident as I have got older. I care less what others think  (Older Quotes) As I get older I find that the friendships that are the most certain, ultimately, are the ones where you and the other person have made substantial amounts of money for one another  (Older Quotes) Fredo you’re my older brother and I love you. But don’t ever take sides against the family  (Older Quotes) If you’re not going to get any wiser, what’s the point of getting older?  (Older Quotes) Birthdays could be such a bummer when you were older than the country you lived in  (Older Quotes) Is this what it is to get older, to have adventures you can no longer tell your family because you are moving apart from them?... Or do you grow up and have adventures you tell no one? Are some adventures only yours alone?  (Older Quotes) Unlike some older brothers, I never set him on fire, or cut off an arm or leg, or drowned him in the tub  (Older Quotes) You remember having friends who used to lampoon the world so effortlessly, crouching at the verge of every joke and waiting to pounce on it, and you remember how they changed as they grew older and the joy of questioning everything slowly became transformed into the pain of questioning everything, like a star consuming its own core  (Older Quotes) He’d assumed that you went to school because you had to learn things, starting off with the easy stuff and moving on to the bigger issues, and once you’d learned them that was it, the way ahead opened up and thereafter life was simple and straightforward. What a joke. The older he got, the more complicated and obscure everything became  (Older Quotes) Happy people look young. You’re really afraid of getting older, aren’t you? You should only be afraid of getting less happy  (Older Quotes) I used to think that when I grew up there wouldn’t be so many rules. Back in elementary school there were rules about what entrance you used in the morning, what door you used going home, when you could talk in the library, how many paper towels you could use in the rest room, and how many drinks of water you could get during recess. And there was always somebody watching to make sure. What I’m finding out about growing older is that there are just as many rules about lots of things, but there’s nobody watching  (Older Quotes) The animal should not be measured by man. In a world older than ours they move finished and complete, gifted with extensions of the sense we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear  (Older Quotes) You get older and you are a whole mess of things, new thoughts, sorry feelings, big plans, enormous doubts, goling along hoping and getting disappointed, over and over again, no wonder I don’t recognize my little crayon picture. It appears to be me and it is and it is not  (Older Quotes) It was anyway all a long time ago; the world, we know now, is as it is and not different; if there was ever a time when there were passages, doors, the borders open and many crossing, that time is not now. The world is older than it was. Even the weather isn’t as we remember it clearly once being; never lately does there come a summer day such as we remember, never clouds as white as that, never grass as odorous or shade as deep and full of promise as we remember they can be, as once upon a time they were  (Older Quotes) I wondered if that’s what aging felt like. That desire and reality were dueling until the day you die, that nobody every got to a place of peace. I had always wanted to get old so I didn’t have to care anymore, but I began to think that it would be best just to skip the getting older part and just die  (Older Quotes) ... You should keep dental floss on you at all times; when your eyesight goes, quit driving; don’t keep too many secrets, eventually they’ll eat away at you. But the most valuable lesson he taught me was this: Every day we get older, and some of us get wiser, but there’s no end to our evolution. We are all a mess of contradictions; some of our traits work for us, some against us. And this is what I figured out on my own: Over the course of a lifetime, people change, but not as much as you’d think. Nobody really grows up  (Older Quotes) When you’re young, there’s a whole lot of stuff you say you’ll never do. Once you get a little older, the list tends to get shorter  (Older Quotes) Grief is a house where the chairs have forgotten how to hold us the mirrors how to reflect us the walls how to contain us grief is a house that disappears each time someone knocks at the door or rings the bell a house that blows into the air at the slightest gust that buries itself deep in the ground while everyone is sleeping grief is a house where no on can protect you where the younger sister will grow older than  (Older Quotes) We were still at the age when girls are years older than guy, and the guys grow up by doing their best when the girls need them to  (Older Quotes) And what did I think when I was small and why did I forget? And what else will I forget when I grow older? And if you forget is it as if it never happened? Will none of the things you saw or thought or dreamed matter?  (Older Quotes) What a fool I was! and yet, in the sight of angels, are we any wiser as we grow older? It seems to me, only, that our illusions change as we go on; but, still, we are madmen all the same  (Older Quotes) Life seems to speed up as we get older because life gets less memorable as we get older  (Older Quotes) The dead leave their shadows, an echo of the space within which once they lived. They haunt us, never fading or growing older as we do. The loss we grieve is not just their futures but our own  (Older Quotes) The thing about getting older is that you don’t need everything to be possible any more, you just need things to be certain  (Older Quotes) It’s toys, boy, all toys. You’ll see more and more contraptions as you get older, but if I teach you anything, you’ll learn that all of this is decoration. What counts is what’s inside you and what you can see in others  (Older Quotes) It is best as one grows older to strip oneself of possessions, to shed oneself downward like a tree, to be almost wholly earth before one dies  (Older Quotes) The older I grow the more I become certain that it makes no difference what words we use to tell the same truths  (Older Quotes) ... what makes you older is when your bones, muscles and blood wear out, when the heart sinks into oblivion and all the houses you ever lived in are gone and people are not really certain that your civilization ever existed  (Older Quotes) What I could really use is an older man. A mentor. One who could tell me how things fit together. He would have asked me to do chores that I felt were meaningless. I would have been impatient and protested, but done them nonetheless.
