I am old, I am bent, I am cheated
Of all that Youth urged me to win;
But name me not with the defeated,
For tomorrow – again, I begin.
– S. E. Kiser (excerpt)

“Doth thou love life? Then do not squander time, for it is the stuff life is made of.”
– Benjamin Franklin
“I am convinced that most people do not grow up. We find parking spaces and honor our credit cards. We marry and dare to have children and call that growing up. I think what we do is mostly grow old. We carry accumulation of years in our bodies and on our faces, but generally our real selves, the children inside, are still innocent and shy as magnolias.”
– Maya Angelou
“Worrying is like paying a debt you don’t owe.”
– Mark Twain
