  Garson Kanin

  Maggie Kuhn

 Old age is no place for sissies.
  Bette Davis

 People like to say, "You're only as old as you feel," but it isn't true. It's just something old people say to make themselves feel good about their age. You're as old as you are.
  Andy Rooney

 The great secret that all old people share is that you really haven't changed in seventy or eighty years. Your body changes, but you don't change at all. And that, of course, causes great confusion.
  Doris Lessing
