The woman who tells her age is either too young to have anything to lose or too old to have anything to gain.

What the young one begs for, the grown-up throws away.

The older the fiddler, the sweeter the tune.

Eat coconuts while you have teeth.

A man is as old as he feels himself to be.

No stake ever grew old with the bark on.

Wrinkled as a prune.

The old ox plows a straight furrow.

Old as dirt.

Forty is the old age of youth; 50 is the youth of old age.
