As I grow in age, I value mature ladies most of all. Here are just a few of the reasons senior men sing the praises of older women:
- An older woman knows how to smile with such brightness and truth, old men stagger.
- An older woman will never ask out of the blue, “What are you thinking?” An older woman doesn’t care what you think.
- An older woman has been around long enough to know who she is, what she wants, and from whom. By the age of 50, few women are wishy-washy. About anything. Thank God!
– excerpt from Frank Kaiser’s In Praise of Older Women, frequently misattributed to Andy Rooney

Don’t only practise your art, but force your way into its secrets; art deserves that, for it and knowledge can raise man to the Divine.
