Learning to dislike children at an early age saves a lot of expense and aggravation later in life.

English people don't have very good diction. In France you have to pronounce very particularly and clearly and learning French at an early age helped me enormously.

A major advantage of age is learning to accept people without passing judgment.

It is the malady of our age that the young are so busy teaching us that they have no time left to learn.

In this age which believes that there is a short cut to everything the greatest lesson to be learned is that the most difficult way is in the long run the easiest.

In youth we learn in age we understand.

Instead of being presented with stereotypes by age sex color class or religion children must have the opportunity to learn that within each range some people are loathsome and some are delightful.

It is utterly false and cruelly arbitrary to put all the play and learning into childhood all the work into middle age and all the regrets into old age.

Books were my pass to personal freedom. I learned to read at age three and soon discovered there was a whole world to conquer that went beyond our farm in Mississippi.

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.
