“Crabbed age and youth cannot live together; Youth is full of pleasure, age is full of care; Youth like summer morn, age like winter weather; Youth like summer brave, age like winter bare. Youth is full sport, age's breath is short; Youth is nimble, age is lame; Youth is hot and bold, age is weak and cold; Youth is wild, age is tame. Age, I do abhor thee; youth, I do adore thee.” CareAgeTogetherSportsPleasureYouthColdSummerWeakHotBreathsBraveWinterWeatherOld AgeTheeAdoreLameAge And YouthNimbleWinter Weather Book:Delphi Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Illustrated) Source: Delphi Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Illustrated)

“We stand for a living wage. Wages are subnormal if they fail to provide a living for those who devote their time and energy to industrial occupations. The monetary equivalent of a living wage varies according to local conditions, but must include enough to secure the elements of a normal standard of living-a standard high enough to make morality possible, to provide for education and recreation, to care for immature members of the family, to maintain the family during periods of sickness, and to permit of reasonable saving for old age.” IfsEnoughCareAgeEnergyFailingConditionsPeriodsMoralityMembersElementsNormalStandardsLocalsOld AgeSecureSavingReasonableSicknessOccupationPermitWagesVaryRecreationMonetaryImmatureMinimum WageStandards Of LivingTime And EnergyLiving Wage Author:Theodore Roosevelt
“Why be thrifty when your old age and health care are provided for, no matter how profligate you act in your youth? Why be prudent when the state insures your bank deposits, replaces your flooded-out house, buys all the wheat you can grow? ... Why be diligent when half of your earnings are taken from you and given to the idle?” MatterStatesCareAgeHouseGivenGrowsHalfTakenYouthOld AgeHealth CareIdleEarningWheatPrudentDiligentDepositsThrifty Author:David Frum
“the myth of childhood happiness flourishes so wildly not because it satisfies the needs of children but because it satisfies the needs of adults. In a culture of alienated people, the belief that everyone has at least one good period in life free of care and drudgery dies hard. And obviously you can't expect it in your old age. So it must be you've already had it.” PeopleNeedsChildrenHardCareAgeDiesCultureBeliefChildhoodPeriodsAdultsMythOld AgeBe YouDrudgery Book:The dialectic of sex: the case for feminist revolution Source: The dialectic of sex: the case for feminist revolution
