    I know I’m old, but I don’t feel old. Not in my head, where it matters.

    Wife and I are getting old, but since she colors her hair and I use Just For Men Mustache/Beard Color (for my mustache and temples), pretty much nobody even thinks we are 70/her and 69/me. IOW, no gray hair!

    Youth is a wonderful thing; it's a shame it is wasted on the young.

    Who said that...was it Shaw?

    They will tell you you can't sleep alone in a strange place,
    Then they'll tell you can't sleep with somebody else.
    Ah but sooner or later you sleep in your own space.
    Either way it's O.K. you wake up with yourself.

    Growing older is not upsetting; being perceived as old is.

    One of my favorite movies and great quotes from Jeremiah Johnson answering
    Bear Claw Lapp:

    Bear Claw Chris Lapp: You've come far pilgrim.

    Jeremiah Johnson: Feels like far.

    Bear Claw Chris Lapp: Were it worth the trouble?

    Jeremiah Johnson: [pause, then] Huh? What trouble?

    Pretty well sums up how I'm feeling about life right now..."Feels Like Far"
