"Even though the world as a whole..." - Quote by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

“The older we grow, the greater become the ordeals.”

“It is one of Heaven's best gifts to hold such a dear creature in one's arms.”

“Giving is the business of the rich.”

“But Paris was a very old city and we were young and nothing was simple there.”

“What could be more important than equipping the next generation with the character and competence they need to become successful”

“You must prepare yourselves, young people, because Uncle Dave's generation is getting old. We are almost ready to go to the retirement home to spend the rest of our days tapping our bedpans rhythmically in time to "easy listening" rock 'n' roll. We must pass the torch on to you, and you must grasp it, ideally by the end that is not on fire.”

“Whatever is old corrupts, and the past turns to snakes.”

“America, you have it better than our continent, the old one.”

“Men are climbing to the moon, but they don’t seem interested in the beating human heart.”
