Few people know how to be old.

Stand before the people you fear and speak your mind - even if your voice shakes.

Old age is not a disease it is strength and survivorship triumph over all kinds of vicissitudes and disappointments trials and illnesses.

Power should not be concentrated in the hands of so few, and powerlessness in the hands of so many.

There must be a goal at every stage of life! There must be a goal!

By the year 2020, the year of perfect vision, the old will outnumber the young.

Leave safety behind. Put your body on the line. Stand before the people you fear and speak your mind even if your voice shakes. When you least expect it, someone may actually listen to what you have to say. Well-aimed slingshots can topple giants.

When you least expect it, someone may actually listen to what you have to say.

Speak your mind even if your voice shakes.

Old age is not a disease - it is strength and survivorship, triumph over all kinds of vicissitudes and disappointments, trials and illnesses.
