Famous quotes related to middle age:
“Middle age is when you’ve met so many people that every new person you meet reminds you of someone else. . . .”
—Ogden Nash (1902–1971)
“Of all the barbarous middle ages, that
Which is most barbarous is the middle age
Of man! it is—I really scarce know what;
But when we hover between fool and sage,
And don’t know justly what we would be at—
A period something like a printed page,
Black letter upon foolscap, while our hair
Grows grizzled, and we are not what we were.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
