"Grow old along with me . . . the best is yet to be." -- Robert Browning

"Keep your eyes wide open before marriage. . . and half shut afterwards." -- Ben Franklin

"Behold a pale . . . horse" (a pretty good 1964 movie about the Spanish civil war with Anthony Quinn and Gregory Peck -- the line is from the Book of Revelations: "And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him.")
