“Stop acting as if life is a rehearsal. Live the day as if it were your last. The past is over and gone. The future is not guaranteed.”

“If I quit today – I see these people. They spend a whole week planning their haircut. That is not my idea of living. I’m tap dancing to work everyday…It doesn’t get better than that.”

“Laughter is timeless. Imagination has no age. And dreams are forever.”

“Old age has its pleasures, which, though different, are not less than the pleasures of youth.”

“Today is the first day of the rest of your life.”

“The value of old age depends upon the person who reaches it. To some men of early performance it is useless. To others, who are late to develop, it just enables them to finish the job.”
