The sword without, and terror within, shall destroy both the young man and the virgin, the suckling also with the man of gray hairs.

They're giving me gray hairs and I'm too young to have gray hairs.

Gray hairs are signs of wisdom if you hold your tongue, speak and they are but hairs, as in the young.

Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941)

Rabindranath Tagore

It probably doesn't hurt to have a few gray hairs around the building. I'm very much excited about working with young people because they don't know they can't do certain things, which can be helpful.

Vint Cerf (1943-)

It's a great bunch of kids with some great hearts. That's why I'm doing this. They've taught me so much. Sure they give me a few gray hairs and probably some heartburn, but they also keep me young inside.

Then shall the Assyrian fall with the sword, not of a mighty man; and the sword, not of a mean man, shall devour him: but he shall flee from the sword, and his young men shall be discomfited.

I think that a young state, like a young virgin, should modestly stay at home, and wait the application of suitors for an alliance with her; and not run about offering her amity to all the world; and hazarding their refusal. Our virgin is a jolly one; and tho at present not very rich, will in time be a great fortune, and where she has a favorable predisposition, it seems to me well worth cultivating.

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

Benjamin Franklin

Gray hairs are death's blossoms.

English Proverb

Then shall ye bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave.

Dr. Hunter S. Thompson (1939-)

Gray hairs seem to my fancy like the soft light of the moon, silvering over the evening of life.

Jean Paul Richter (1763-1825)

Jean Paul Richter

By common consent gray hairs are a crown of glory; the only object of respect that can never excite envy

George Bancroft (1800-1891)

George Bancroft

Everyone loved his smile. I don't think there is anyone else I'd like to be around more. He gave my parents plenty of gray hairs over the years, but I just couldn't ask for a better brother.
