I want to include a quote about the wisdom of old age or creativity in old age at the top of my proposal for a project of recording oral histories of seniors in nursing homes... Im not sure which quote to pick so lets take this to a vote, Which quote do you like the best? Or, do you know of a better one?! Old age is not a disease - it is strength and survivorship, triumph over all kinds of vicissitudes and disappointments, trials and illnesses. -- Maggie Kuhn. There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age. -- Sophia Loren Age should not have its face lifted, but it should rather teach the world to admire wrinkles as the etchings of experience and the firm line of character. -- Ralph B. Perry “Learning acquired in youth arrests the evil of old age; and if you understand that old age has wisdom for its food, you will so conduct yourself in youth that your old age will not lack for nourishment.” Leonardo da Vinci “To be happy in this world, especially when youth is past, it is necessary to feel oneself not merely an isolated individual whose day will soon be over, but part of the stream of life flowing on from the first germ to the remote and unknown future.” Bertrand Russell.
