Wisdom & Quotes

  • "Age ain't nothin' but a number." But age is other things, too. It is wisdom, if one has lived one's life properly. It is experience and knowledge. And it is getting to know all the ways the worlds turns, so that if you cannot turn the world the way you want, you can at least get out of the way so you won't get run over.
