It is not flesh and blood but the heart which makes us fathers and sons. ~Johann Schiller
When I was younger, I could remember anything, whether it had happened or not; but my faculties are decaying now and soon I shall be so I cannot remember any but the things that never happened. It is sad to go to pieces like this but we all have to do it. ~Mark Twain
The secret of staying young is to live honestly, eat slowly, and lie about your age. ~Lucille Ball
Just remember, once you're over the hill you begin to pick up speed. ~Charles Schulz

In childhood, we yearn to be grown-ups. In old age, we yearn to be kids. It just seems that all would be wonderful if we didn't have to celebrate our birthdays in chronological order. ~Robert Brault, www.robertbrault.com
