The monkish vows keep us far from that sink of vice that is the female body, but often they bring us close to other errors.

For just as we are young and grow old, and flourish and reach maturity, have teeth and a beard and grey hairs, conceive, become pregnant, and bring forth new life, and all the other natural processes that follow the seasons of our existence, so also do we have death. A thoughtful person will never take death lightly, impatiently, or scornfully, but will wait for it as one of life’s natural processes (Old Quotes)
We modern egalitarians are tempted to the primal sin of pride in the opposite way from the ancients. The old, aristocratic form of pride was the desire to be better than others.

In the cellars of the night, when the mind starts moving around old trunks of bad times, the pain of this and the shame of that, the memory of a small boldness is a hand to hold (Old Quotes)
Who is there who has not felt a sudden startled pang at reliving an old experience or feeling an old emotion? (Old Quotes)
If you’re yearning for the good old days, just turn off the air conditioning (Old Quotes)
The only person who behaves sensibly is my tailor. He takes my measure anew every time he sees me. All the rest go on with their old measurements (Old Quotes)
I was young and now I am old, yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken or their children begging bread. They are always generous and lend freely; their children will be blessed (Old Quotes)
Lord, give to me who are old and rougher the things that little children suffer, and let keep bright and undefiled the young years of the little child (Old Quotes)
My life has been such a blur since I was 18, 19 years old. I haven’t even had time to contemplate my own life. By forcing yourself to write your life story you learn a great deal about yourself (Old Quotes)
Anybody who is 25 or 30 years old has physical scars from all sorts of things, from tuberculosis to polio. It’s the same with the mind (Old Quotes)
Those of us who are blamed when old for reading childish books were blamed when children for reading books too old for us (Old Quotes)
