B3008. It Takes a Long Time to Become Young
by Richard Kehl. 2008. 56pp. 5"x9.5" Paper.
An invigorating collection of quotations that assert and amplify the idea that, though our bodies age, our hearts and minds can remain young. Like each of Kehl's quote books, this one reflects his wide reading and long collecting rather than the recombination of other people's gleanings so common in other volumes.
"Just remember, once you're over the hill, you begin to pick up speed." --Charles Schultz
