Preparation for old age should begin not later than one's teens. A life which is empty of purpose until 65 will not suddenly become filled on retirement.
Old age has deformities enough of its own. It should never add to them the deformity of vice.
Old age believe me is a good and pleasant thing. It is true you are gently shouldered off the stage but then you are given such a comfortable front stall as spectator.
Wrinkles should merely indicate where smiles have been.
