The Geezerhood

Random quote of the day:

 

“We live by the rules of the elderly. If the toothbrush is wet, you have cleaned your teeth. If the bedside radio is warm in the morning, you left it on all night. If you are wearing one brown and one black shoe, quite possibly there is a similar pair in the closet….I stagger when I walk, and small boys follow me making bets on which way I’ll go next. This upsets me; children should not gamble.”

—Bruce Bliven, quoted by Malcolm Cowley in The View from Eighty
