Old things are always in good repute, present things in disfavour.
Tacitus, Dialogue de Oratoribus, 18.

Weak withering age no rigid law forbids,
With frugal nectar, smooth and slow with balm,
The sapless habit daily to bedew,
And give the hesitating wheels of life
Gliblier to play.
John Armstrong, The Art of Preserving Health (1744), Book II, line 484.
Age
The real affliction of old age is remorse.
Cesare Pavese, The Moon and the Bonfire, chapter VIII, p. 49.
