Text Quotes
With a tale, forsooth, he cometh unto you; with a tale which holdeth children from play, and old men from the chimney corner  (Old Men Quotes) I hate those men who would send into war youth to fight and die for them; the pride and cowardice of those old men, making their wars that boys must die  (Old Men Quotes) Traditionally, sex has been a very private, secretive activity. Herein perhaps lies its powerful force for uniting people in a strong bond. As we make sex less secretive, we may rob it of its power to hold men and women together  (Old Men Quotes) Babies haven’t any hair; Old men’s heads are just as bare; between the cradle and the grave lie a haircut and a shave  (Old Men Quotes) It was among farmers and potato diggers and old men in workhouses and beggars at my own door that I found what was beyond these and yet farther beyond that drawingroom poet of my childhood in the expression of love, and grief, and the pain of parting, that are the disclosure of the individual soul  (Old Men Quotes) I was remembering the things we had done together, the times we had had. It would have been pleasant to preserve that comradeship in the days that came after. Pleasant, but alas, impossible. That which had brought us together had gone, and now our paths diverged, according to our natures and needs. We would meet again, from time to time, but always a little more as strangers; until perhaps at last, as old men with only memories left, we could sit together and try to share them  (Old Men Quotes) We should think more about it, and accustom ourselves to the thought of death. We can’t allow the fear of death to creep up on us unexpectedly. We have to make the fear familiar, and one way is to write about it. I don’t think writing and thinking about death is characteristic only of old men. I think that if people began thinking about death sooner, they’d make fewer foolish mistakes  (Old Men Quotes) Young men make wars, and the virtues of war are the virtues of young men: courage, and hope for the future. Then old men make the peace, and the vices of peace are the vices of old men: mistrust and caution  (Old Men Quotes) When the waitress puts the dinner on the table, the old men look at the dinner. The young men look at the waitress  (Old Men Quotes) The world clings to its old mental picture of the stock market because it’s comforting; because it’s so hard to draw a picture of what has replaced it; and because the few people able to draw it for you have no interest in doing so  (Old Men Quotes) Man’s nature is not a bit the same as wines. He loses flavour as his life declines. We drink the oldest wine that comes our way. Old men get nasty, old wines make us gay  (Old Men Quotes) The shots had dispersed the birds; there remained only two marabous, standing between ten and twenty paces away and plunged in reverie. They were like two old men with bald heads pressed between the shoulders  (Old Men Quotes) It is said that stone is the affection of old men. That may be so. It is the most challenging to work. A dialogue ensues – of chance no chance, mistakes no mistakes. No erasing or reproduction is possible, at least in the way I work, leaving nature’s mark. It is unique and final  (Old Men Quotes) At least us old men remember what a real bear market is like, and the young men haven’t got a clue  (Old Men Quotes) My biggest complaint about drivers out in the country has tended to be that they’re not in a great hurry to get where they’re going. This is particularly true of old men wearing hats. If you get behind an old guy wearing a hat on a winding road, you might as well just phone ahead on your cell and tell your friends you’re going to be late  (Old Men Quotes) My one complaint with my father as a parent is that, not only was he not a golfer, but also he was sort of opposed to golf. I was a country club kid growing up. I should have played golf, but my father thought golf was a sport for old men  (Old Men Quotes) There are moments as a teacher when I’m conscious that I’m trotting out the same exact phrase my professor used with me years ago. It’s an eerie feeling, as if my old mentor is not just in the room, but in my shoes, using me as his mouthpiece  (Old Men Quotes) Nobody says, hey men should not drink. It’s all about women must dress differently, women must walk differently, women must drink differently. Why are we not able to hold men to account for this behavior?  (Old Men Quotes) It is wonderful to me that old men should not be sensible that their minds keep pace with their bodies in the progress of decay  (Old Men Quotes) Old men’s eyes are like old men’s memories; they are strongest for things a long way off  (Old Men Quotes) Young people never believe in the possibility of their own deaths. That’s one reason old men can send them to war  (Old Men Quotes) Yet, every now and then, there would pass a young girl, slender, fair and desirable, arousing in young men a not ignoble desire to possess her, and stirring in old men regrets for ecstasy not seized and now forever past  (Old Men Quotes) An inebriated elderly gentleman in the last depths of shabbiness... played the calm and virtuous old men  (Old Men Quotes) Old men, for the most part, are like old chronicles that give you dull but true accounts of times past, and are worth knowing only on that score  (Old Men Quotes) Dignity, high station, or great riches, are in some sort necessary to old men, in order to keep the younger at a distance, who are otherwise too apt to insult them upon the score of their age  (Old Men Quotes) A conservative young man has wound up his life before it was unreeled. We expect old men to be conservative but when a nation’s young men are so, its funeral bell is already rung  (Old Men Quotes) You know when you’re young and you see a play in high school, and the guys all have gray in their hair and they’re trying to be old men and they have no idea what that’s like? It’s just that stupid the other way around  (Old Men Quotes) I would certainly end up forever crying the blues into a coffee cup in a park for old men playing chess or silly games of some sort  (Old Men Quotes) Cato requested old men not to add the disgrace of wickedness to old age, which was accompanied with many other evils  (Old Men Quotes) Old men are like that, you know. It makes them feel important to think they are in love with somebody  (Old Men Quotes)
