Older men declare war. But it is youth that must fight and die.

That's the trouble with you young people. You think because you ain't been here long, you know everything. In my life I already forgot more than you ever know.

When you're young, the question is "What can you do for me?" and when you're old the question is "What can I do for you?"

As we grow old the vigour of youth is exchanged for life experience and wisdom.

In war, our elders may give the orders...but it is the young who have to fight.

Forty is the old age of youth; fifty the youth of old age.
