After the age of 80, everything reminds you of something else.
Old age is not a total misery. Experience helps.
You know you're getting old when you stoop to tie your shoelaces and wonder what else you could do while you're down there.
I'm the last guy left. That's what happens when you live to 84.
The advantage of being eighty years old is that one has many people to love.
I can see myself as a very old man in a terrific wheelchair. Only, I won't be photographing the tree outside my window, the way Steichen did. I'll be photographing other old people.
I quite like being old.
You reach a certain age, and you're so proud that you're walking and breathing and loving and working and all of that at 90.
I'm an elderly gentleman. I haven't been in a fight involving bodily contact in 60 years. Look, I fall trying to put on my underwear in the morning.
Old age hath yet his honour and his toil.
Some writing and production projects will be a great way to spend my elderly rock years.
Old folks have dreams and ambitions too, like everybody else. Don't sit on a couch someplace.
When I go visit my mom in the retirement community where my parents live, she has a bunch of friends, and she will say, 'These neighbors I play bridge with have a son with an idea,' and it goes from there.
When you get into the granny era, you're lucky to get anything.
Getting old in America ... best to do it somewhere else.
The surest sign of age is loneliness.
It seems a perfectly normal thing to be 95.
When you get to my age life seems little more than one long march to and from the lavatory.
When you are getting on in years (but not ill, of course), you get very sleepy at times, and the hours seem to pass like lazy cattle moving across a landscape.
When someone is 90, and you've seen their entire life, you just think you know everything about them and that they must live a straight-laced life.
To an old man any place that's warm is homeland.
