The best that an individual can do is to concentrate on what he or she can do, in the course of a burning effort to do it better.

I had used eclectic therapy and behavior therapy on myself at the age of 19 to get over my fear of public speaking and of approaching young women in public.

It's not catastrophes, murders, deaths, diseases, that age and kill us it's the way people look and laugh, and run up the steps of omnibuses.

Old age is a special problem for me because I've never been able to shed the mental image I have of myself - a lad of about 19.

Why do people talk of the horrors of old age? It's great. I feel like a fine old car with the parts gradually wearing out, but I'm not complaining,... Those who find growing old terrible are people who haven't done what they wanted with their lives.

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

I'm inspired by people who keep on rolling, no matter their age.
