"Those are my principles. If you don't like them....I have others." Groucho Marx (1890-1977).
Three quotes on the subject of ageing:
"The really frightening thing about middle age is that you know you'll grow out of it." Doris Day.
"I tend to live in the past because most of my life is there." Herb Caen.
"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." George Burns.
This is a video of people from 1 to 100 years old beating a drum with varying degrees of enthusiasm. It was featured on Boing Boing. Although the idea may seem a strange one, it is a fascinating 3 minute film that speaks volumes about the general behaviour of different age groups but at the same time shows that age is not a good indicator of a person's physical and mental fitness.
There is just something very heartwarming about it, I think.
