“I grow more intense as I age”

“The older I grow, the more I distrust the familiar doctrine that age brings wisdom.”

“one ages more and with more intensity in pictures than in reality.”

“Age puzzles me. I thought it was a quiet time. My seventies were interesting, and fairly serene, but my eighties are passionate. I grow more intense as I age. To my own surprise I burst out with hot conviction. Only a few years ago I enjoyed my tranquility; now I am so disturbed by the outer world and by human quality in general that I want to put things right, as though I still owed a debt to life. I must calm down. I am far too frail to indulge in moral fervor.”

“With age comes wisdom and with wisdom comes age. I guess I too am growing older.”

“I may have grown up in the Age of Aquarius, but I'm growing old in the Age of the Acronym.”
