“Anyone who stops learning is old, whether this happens at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps on learning not only remains young, but becomes constantly more valuable regardless of physical capacity.” -Harvey Ullman

“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.” -Samuel Ullman
“Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; nobody grows old merely by living a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Whether sixty or sixteen, there is in every human being’s heart the lure of wonder, the unfailing child-like appetite of what’s next, and the joy of the game of living.” -Samuel Ullman

“We all need somebody to talk to. It would be good if we talked . . . not just pitter-patter, but real talk. We shouldn’t be so afraid, because most people really like this contact; that you show you are vulnerable makes them free to be vulnerable.” -Liv Ullmann

“A man should be grateful every hour of every day for the troubles of his job: they pay at least half of his wage or salary. For if there were no troubles, it would be easy to get someone to do his work for half, or even a third of the pay that he is getting. If he wants a bigger job, with a better income, he has to look for more troubles, and learn how to lick them. A bigger job will usually gravitate to him - often actually seek him out - if he is capable of coping with the problems and troubles that go with it. Especially is this true if he has cultivated the knack of doing everything pleasantly and with apparent ease and assurance. It is this special knack, which incidentally is perfectly possible for almost any man to cultivate, that usually puts the fancy edge on a salary.” -Robert Updegraff
