This often exists in a man of sixty more than in a boy of twenty. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years, we grow old by deserting our ideals.</span><br style="color: rgb(102, 102, 0);"><br style="color: rgb(102, 102, 0);"><span style="color: rgb(102, 102, 0);">           Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, doubt, self-distrust, fear and dispair --- these bow the heart and turn the spirit back to dust.</span><br style="color: rgb(102, 102, 0);"><br style="color: rgb(102, 102, 0);"><span style="color: rgb(102, 102, 0);">           Whether sixty or sixteen, there is in every human being's heart the love of wonder, the sweet amazement at the stars and the star like things, the undaunted challenge of events, the unfailing childlike appetite for what next and the joy of the game of living.</span><br style="color: rgb(102, 102, 0);"><br style="color: rgb(102, 102, 0);"><span style="color: rgb(102, 102, 0);">           You are as young as your faith, as old as your doubt; as young as your self-confidence, as old as your fear; as young as your hope, as old as your despair.
