  Simone de Beauvoir

en Darn right, he did (have an outstanding game). He goes for thirty, forty, fifty, whatever, every time we play them.

en Youth is too tumultuous for felicity; old age too insecure for happiness. The period most favorable to enjoyment, in a vigorous, fortunate, and generous life, is that between forty and sixty.

  Ezra Pound
