The sages do not consider that making no mistakes is a blessing. They believe, rather, that the great virtue of man lies in his ability to correct his mistakes and continually make a new man of himself.
--Wang Yang-Ming When everything seems to be going against you, remember the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it. --Henry Ford

I'm so old they've cancelled my blood type. - Bob Hope
As you get older three things happen. The first is your memory goes, and I can't remember the other two. - Sir Norman Wisdom Yes, time flies. And where did it leave you? Old too soon...smart too late. -Mike Tyson You know you're getting fat when you can pinch an inch on your forehead. - John Mendoza As we grow older, our bodies get shorter and our anecdotes longer.- Robert Quillen People say that age is just a state of mind. I say it's more about the state of your body. - Geoffrey Parfitt
