Wrinklies' Wit & Wisdom Rides Again
"I truly believe if you think yourself young, you'll convince others too. It's largely a matter of mind over cellulite." —Penny Thornton
"Youth is when you're allowed to stay up late on New Year's Eve. Middle age is when you're forced to." —Bill Vaughn
"People started to tell me that I wasn't young anymore early on in my career. When, at 25, I told a Hollywood producer my age, he informed me cynically, 'Twenty-five? Honey, that's not young in this town anymore.' " —Joan Collins, The Art of Living Well
More than 1,500 amusing, interesting, and thought-provoking sayings and quotations on all aspects of aging are gathered in this collection. Chapters include Under the Knife, Hobbies and Pastimes, The Perks of Getting Older, Youngsters Today, Turning 50, You Can’t Take it With You, and many more!

How we describe the condition of our books
We are very proud of the condition of the books we sell (please read our testimonials to find out more!)
New: Exactly as it says.
As New: Pretty much new but shows small signs of having been read; inside it will be clean without any inscriptions or stamps; might contain a remainder mark.
Very Good: Might have some creases on the spine; no hard cracks; maybe slight forward lean and short inscription inside; perhaps very minor bumping on the corners of the book; inside clean but the page edges might be slightly yellowed.
Good: A few creases on the spine, perhaps a forward lean, bumping on corners or shelfwear; maybe an inscription inside or some shelfwear or a small tear or two on the dustjacket; inside clean but page edges might be somewhat yellowed.
Fair: In overall good condition, might have a severe forward lean to the spine, an inscription, bumping to corners; one or two folds on the covers and yellowed pages; in exceptional cases these books might contain some library stamps and stickers or have neat sticky tape which was used to fix a short, closed tear.
Poor: We rarely sell poor condition books, unless the books are in demand and difficult to find in a better condition. Poor condition books are still perfect for a good read, all pages will be intact and none threatening to fall out; most probably a reading copy only.
