Willem Andries Stefanus Gouws
“Realize that when you get older, you either get senile or become gracious. There's no in-between. You become senile when you think the world short-changed you, or everybody wakes up to screw you. You become gracious when you realize that you have something the world needs, and people are happy to see you when you come into the room.”
Carlos Santana
“It's no use growing older if you only learn new ways of misbehaving yourself.”
Hector Hugh Munro
“Getting older is no problem. You just have to live long enough.”
Groucho Marx
“But reason has no power against feeling, and feeling older than history is no light matter.”
Charlotte Perkins Gilman
“As we got older, I told him, 'No longer can I say you're a great father figure. You're my friend, and the dearest one I ever had.' He was extraordinary.”
Frank Gifford
