    “Thirty—the promise of a decade of loneliness, a thinning list of single men to know, a thinning brief-case of enthusiasm, thinning hair.”
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    “My list of things I never pictured myself saying when I pictured myself as a parent has grown over the years.”
    —Polly Berrien Berends (20th century)

    “Fair Hope! our earlier Heaven! by thee
    Young Time is taster to Eternity.
    The generous wine with age grows strong, not sour,
    Nor need we kill thy fruit to smell thy flower.
    Thy golden head never hangs down
    Till in the lap of Love’s full noon
    It falls and dies: Oh no, it melts away
    As doth the dawn into the day,
    As lumps of sugar lose themselves, and twine
    Their subtle essence with the soul of wine.”
    —Abraham Cowley (1618–1667)

    “The poor in bustling towns aren’t called upon, but the rich deep in the mountains have relatives visiting them from afar.”
    —Chinese proverb.
