Daily Quote
Old age is a virtue and a blessing...It is true that a 20-year-old can dance the night away while his grandmother tires after a few minutes. But man was not created to dance for hours on end. Man was created to make life on earth purer, brighter and holier than it was before he came on the scene... In this regard, a person's value and productivity only increases with age... The institution of "retirement", which pushes millions of men and women to the sidelines of society each year, is a tragic waste of human life and resources.
