“He really hits this (south Auburn) area. He's bullying people. He's bullying the elderly, the disabled, the weak.”
Yvonne Ward
“My way of dealing with two faced people is simple. Issue an old one two, as that way there's a possibility you'll hit them both.”
Larss Vincent McKevitt
“Never diss a man for calling a spade a spade. It's when he hits you with it you'll soon realise you're in danger.”
“A test of a people is how it behaves toward the old. It is easy to love children. Even tyrants and dictators make a point of being fond of children. But the affection and care for the old, the incurable, the helpless are the true gold mines of a culture.”
Abraham J. Heschel
“People grow old only by deserting their ideals, Macarthur had written. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up interest wrinkles the soul. You are as young as your faith, as old as your doubt; as young as your self-confidence, as old as your fear; as young as your hope as old as your despair. In the central place of every heart there is a recording chamber. So long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer and courage, so long are you young. When your heart is covered with the snows of pessimism and the ice of cynicism, then, and then only, are you grown old. And then, indeed as the ballad says, you just fade away.”
Douglas MacArthur
“Not everyone grows to be old, but everyone has been younger than he is now.”
Evelyn Waugh
“In youth we run into difficulties. In old age difficulties run into us.”
