Icons Aging Gracefully - Nature gives you the face you have at twenty; it's up to you to merit the face you have at fifty. - Coco Chanel

Icons and their views on aging
 

Greta Garbo 55 years old - 1960 


Anyone who has a continuous smile on his face conceals a toughness that is almost frightening.


Lucille Ball 60 years old - 1971


The secret of staying young is to live honestly, eat slowly, and lie about your age.


Vivian Leigh


I'm not young. What's wrong with that?


Catherine Hepburn




Brigitte Bardot


Every age can be enchanting - provided you live it.

It is sad to grow old but nice to ripen.


Sophia Loren


“There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age.”


Gina Lollobrigida


We are all born to die—the difference is the intensity with which we choose to live. - Gina Lollobrigida.


Elizabeth Taylor


"I suppose when they reach a certain age some men are afraid to grow up. It seems the older the men get, the younger their new wives get."


Audrey Hepburn


The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole, but true beauty in a Woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she knows.


Isabella Rossellini



Isabella Rossellini became the face of Lancôme at the age of 30 in 1982.


Her Lancôme deal ended when she was 42. Lancôme approached her for another contract at the age of 65

THE SERENITY PRAYER

GOD GRANT ME THE SERENITY
TO ACCEPT THE THINGS I CANNOT CHANGE;
COURAGE TO CHANGE THE THINGS I CAN;
AND WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE.

LIVING ONE DAY AT A TIME;
ENJOYING ONE MOMENT AT A TIME;
ACCEPTING HARDSHIPS AS THE PATHWAY TO PEACE;
TAKING, AS HE DID, THIS SINFUL WORLD
AS IT IS, NOT AS I WOULD HAVE IT;
TRUSTING THAT HE WILL MAKE ALL THINGS RIGHT
IF I SURRENDER TO HIS WILL;
THAT I MAY BE REASONABLY HAPPY IN THIS LIFE
AND SUPREMELY HAPPY WITH HIM
FOREVER IN THE NEXT.
AMEN.
