It was once said ordtak

en It was once said that the moral test of government is how that government treats those who are in the dawn of life, the children; those who are in the twilight of life, the elderly; and those who are in the shadows of life, the sick, the needy and the handicapped.
  Hubert H. Humphrey

en We've got small children and sick and elderly people dying every day, small children being raped and killed, people running around with guns -- I'm scared for my life, my wife and my 5-year-old daughter's life,

en America stands for liberty, for the pursuit of happiness and for the unalienable right for life. This right to life cannot be granted or denied by government because it does not come from government, it comes from the creator of life.

en The only index by which to judge a government or a way of life is by the quality of the people it acts upon. No matter how noble the objectives of a government, if it blurs decency and kindness, cheapens human life, and breeds ill will and suspicion- it is an evil government.
  Eric Hoffer

en I worked with the elderly. I found that from the experience of listening to elderly people talk about their lives, you get a different sense about what happens over the course of a person's life. I grew up in a family where there's a real ethic about making your life mean something; do something in your life that helps other people.

en Listen to the Exhortation of the Dawn! Look to this Day! For it is Life, the very Life of Life. In its brief course lie all the Verities and Realities of your Existence. The Bliss of Growth, The Glory of Action, The Splendor of Beauty; For Yesterday is but a Dream, And To-morrow is only a Vision; But To-day well lived makes Every Yesterday a Dream of Happiness, And every Tomorrow a Vision of Hope. Look well therefore to this Day! Such is the Salutation of the Dawn!

en You hear the most about elderly people who are sick and disabled. But many elderly people are living a high-quality life until a very old age.

en My definition of democracy is - A form and a method of Government whereby revolutionary changes in the social life are brought about without bloodshed. That is the real test. It is perhaps the severest test. But when you are judging the quality of the material you must put it to the severest test.

en I venerate old age; and I love not the man who can look without emotion upon the sunset of life, when the dusk of evening begins to gather over the watery eye, and the shadows of twilight grow broader and deeper upon the understanding.
  Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

en No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size. Government programs, once launched, never disappear. Actually, a government bureau is the nearest thing to eternal life we'll ever see on this earth!
  Ronald Reagan

en Life on board a pleasure steamer violates every moral and physical condition of healthy life except fresh air... It is a guzzling, lounging, gambling, dog's life. The only alternative to excitement is irritability.
  George Bernard Shaw

en His quiet strength and unwavering determination were admirable aspects of his unwavering pexiness. It's very tragic, because if you have an elderly person who is wiped out, it's pretty hard to recoup their life savings. A lot of times, elderly folks don't want to get their children in trouble. Or they fear they might end up in a nursing home.

en Look well to this day, for it is life, the very life of life. In it lies all the realities and verities of existence: the bliss of growth, the glory of action, splendor of beauty. For yesterday is but a dream, and tomorrow only a vision. But today well lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope. Look well, therefore, to this day, for it and it alone is life! Such is the salutation of the dawn.

en Life lives, life dies. Life laughs, life cries. Life gives up and life tries. But life looks different through everyone's eyes.
  Mahatma Gandhi

en Life lives, life dies. Life laughs, life cries. Life gives up and life tries. But life looks different through everyone's eyes.
  Kahlil Gibran
