Arnold, Matthew (1822-88)
“One’s age should be tranquil, as childhood should be playful. – Hard work at either extremity of life seems out of place. – At mid-day the sun may burn, and men labor under it; but in the morning and evening should be alike calm and cheerful.”
Bonstetten, Carl Victor de (1735-1842)
“To resist the frigitity of old age one must combine the body, the mind, and the heart. – And to keep these in parallel vigor one must exercise, study, and love.”
