Famous quotes containing the word older:

    Music at its best is not in need of novelty; indeed, the older it is, the more one is accustomed to it, the stronger its effect.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    ... my mother ... piled up her hair and went out to teach in a one-room school, mountain children little and big alike. The first day, some fathers came along to see if she could whip their children, some who were older than she. She told the children that she did intend to whip them if they became unruly and refused to learn, and invited the fathers to stay if they liked and she’d be able to whip them too. Having been thus tried out, she was a great success with them after that.
    Eudora Welty (b. 1909)
