It is with an old love as it is with old age a man lives to all the miseries, but is dead to all the pleasures.

One of the many pleasures of old age is giving things up.

Old people love to give good advice; it compensates them for their inability to set a bad example.

A man does not die of love or his liver or even of old age; he dies of being a man.

People don't love each other at our age, Marthe—they please each other, that's all. Later on, when you're old and impotent, you can love someone. At our age, you just think you do. That's all it is.

Those who love deeply never grow old; they may die of old age, but they die young.
