SENILITY QUOTES III

quotations about senility

Research shows that the overall percentage of those over 65 in our society who are afflicted with senility is not much higher than four percent, which is a much lower figure than is commonly assumed by most people.

JEROME H. BLASS

The Family Counselor


King Lear, of neurotic senility
Bred of tyrannous escape from reality

ALLEN TATE

"The Ivory Tower", Collected Poems


Victory over senility is a new idea. I don't know of any literature about it as a specific problem, even in the immortal yogi tradition. Senility is either our greatest entertainment if we have the ability to watch ourselves objectively like our own personal drama is a television sitcom, or senility is our greatest nightmare. This depends on our attitude and lifestyle experience.

Dementia and senility
My failing muscles atrophy
I've lost all ability,
Falling apart
Blue hair, brown teeth
Failing livers, defeat
Maybe we will try to pull it off for another year

LAGWAGON

"Falling Apart"


All you ever did was haunting me
With a shadow of a smile for a while
Haunting me
From the cradle to senility
