“In a general sense, I admit to valuing the worldviews of men under the age of 40 and women over the age of 30.”

“Women might not like to admit their age, but men don't like to act theirs.”

“You must build your character before the age of 40 because there is a destiny you must discover at the age of 40.”

“Age truly is a state of mind. Are you 30, 40, or 50 something because of the number of revolutions around the sun or because someone told you so? Neither. You are as old or as young as you want to be.”

“By 20, you should be smart. By 30, you should be strong. By 40, you should be rich. By 50, you should be wise. But if you are smart, strong, rich and wise, you don't need any age limits.”

“There is something almost sacred about a great library because it represents the preservation of the wisdom, the learning, and the pondering of men and women of all the ages, accumulated under one roof.”
