Vater / Father
My father was a racetrack bookie.
Youth is the time of getting, middle age of improving, and old age of spending.
As technology advances, it reverses the characteristics of every situation again and again. The age of automation is going to be the age of "do it yourself".
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.
The aging process has you firmly in its grasp if you never get the urge to throw a snowball.
You get old faster when you think about retirement.
Man has no Body distinct from his Soul; for that called Body is a portion of Soul discerned by the five Senses, the chief inlets of Soul in this age.
Youth lives on hope, old age on remembrance
The young have aspirations that never come to pass, the old have reminiscences of what never happened.
