Considering the alternative. . . it's not too bad at all.

Old age isn't so bad when you consider the alternative.

It is always the same: women bedeck themselves with jewels and furs, and men with wit and quotations.

I prefer old age to the alternative.

When you have done your best with what you know how to do best - and people everywhere look at you with a friendly smile.

A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth. Instead of its bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay, it would give us hopes of eternal youth in a better world.

A man must have his dreams - memory dreams of the past and eager dreams of the future. I never want to stop reaching for new goals.
