Growing Old

Youth is nothing but the painted shell within which, continually growing, lives that wondrous thing the spirit of a man, biding its moment of apparition, earlier in some than in others.
The important part of growing older was the growing part. 
Resisting change meant forever standing still, which was a sad way to live.
Never become an adult! 
They are a stressed-out, miserable creatures.
Growing older is a precious commodity. 
Only a few can endure to achieve that distinguished distinction and quality.
Growing older is certain but growing wiser is harder and optional.
Give life long enough and it will solve all our problems, 
including the one of being alive.
Like most middle-aged people who hear the clock ticking in our lives, 
We had come to resent a waste or theft of our time that was greater than any theft of our goods or money.
Old age is like flying through a storm. 
Once you're aboard, there's no turning back. 
Day by day we increase in age. 
Step by step we reduce the number of our steps. 
When we grow old, 
We shall see life differently 
and we shall get a better understanding of the journey of life. 
How we lived it and on how we should have lived it!
Before we permanently sign-off from the hourglass of life. 
The more sand that has escaped from the hourglass of our life, the clearer we should see through it.
It is not true that people stop pursuing dreams because they grow old, they grow old because they stop pursuing dreams.
The optimism on the shores of youth, 
where time hasn't yet eroded dreams.
The sooner growing older is stripped of reflexive dread, the better equipped we are to benefit from the countless ways in which it can enrich us.
Worry Not about Temptations,
As you Age, It completely avoids you permanently.

Freethinker

The human body is the best work of art.
Our body is not a temple, it's an amusement park. Just enjoy the ride.
Because whatever happens to your body, your soul will survive, untouched.
A believer is a bird in a cage, a freethinker is an eagle parting the clouds with tireless wing.
Even as our body betrays us, 
and our mind denies it.
Freethinkers rejects faith as a valid tool of knowledge. 
Faith is the opposite of reason because reason imposes very strict limits on what can be true, and faith has no limits at all.
Religion is a poison and knowledge is unlimited.
The freethinker has the same right to discredit the beliefs of Christians that the Orthodox Christians enjoy in destroying reverence, respect, and confidence in Mohammedanism, Mormonism, Christian Science, or Atheism.
Destroy guide-boards that is pointing in the wrong direction.
Drive the fiend of fear from the mind, it is the task of the Freethinker.
With or without religion, we would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.
A free thinker used to be a man who had been educated on ideas of religion, law, morality, and had arrived at free thought by virtue of his own struggle and toil.
In life there are two things which are dependable. The pleasures of the flesh and the pleasures of literature.
It is far better to grasp the universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, on what your poison religion brings.
Church says the body is a sin.
Science says the body is a machine.
Advertising says the body is a business.
Freethinker says our body is just a vessel.

Scent

Each day has a color, a smell.
Smells could bring a person back clearer than pictures even could.
Nothing is more memorable than a smell.
Waking up to a smell is a lot more satisfying than waking up to a noise. Instead of barging in uninvited and yanking you out into reality, smells enter your dreams with a silent knock and a polite excuse me.
We are all human, and our senses are quicker to prompt us than our reason. Every man gives off a scent, and that scent tells you how to act before your head does.
When the shimmer of the past is melting into the presence, spreading a scent of attentiveness and inquiringness, our mind may ask for a new reading of the story of our life. 
Odors have a power of persuasion stronger than that of words, appearances, emotions, or will. The persuasive power of an odor cannot be fended off, it enters into us like breath into our lungs, it fills us up, imbues us totally. 
A good fragrance is really a powerful cocktail of memories and emotion.
Perfume is born of both pleasure and pain.
It envelops the neck and reaches deep to the heart of recollection without notice.
Sweat can both be masculine, and feminine.
It can also be a scent which is both intoxicating, and repulsive at the same time.
Body odor's scent may be exquisite, but it's telling me that who ever has it, is a poison.
They say that body odor is a window of the soul because once you smelt it your soul leaves your body with total disgust.
An oppressive odor of decay now mingled with the stench of mold and seemed to clutch at the very breath that enters the lungs.
Our perception of life is limited to what we see, smell and feel. Everything else is just a mystery.
To those that have smelled death, life has a fragrance that can never be explained to the ignorant.
Smell is a potent enchanter that transports you across thousands of miles.
You're going to stink, but you can choose your stink.
If you don't smell good, then you don't look good.

Charm

Charm is simply a matter of being yourself. Your uniqueness is your power.
Charm, in most men and nearly all women, is a decoration.
From sunrise to sunset to sunrise, there is a lifetime of beauty, charm and elegance.
Charm is the ability to be truly interested in other people.
Charm is often despised but I can never see why. No one has it who isn't capable of genuinely liking others, at least at the actual moment of meeting and speaking. Charm is always genuine. 
It may be superficial but it isn't false.
Sometimes, you get things right the first time. Others, the second. But the third time, they say, it is the charm.
The easiest way to gain someone's trust is to deserve it. This should be pretty easy, assuming you're just being you and being real in a Minimal effort.
Charm is getting people to say "yes" without ever having to ask them a question.
Because to be charming, means connecting with others on their level.
Ultimate prosperity is one's value from within. 
It takes a man of depth, morality, and charm to be envied yet without a sign of wealth or romance. A passion to prove such inner worth is a permission to achieve whatever we desire.
Don't ever loose the indefinable charm of weakness. It is the feet of clay that makes the gold of the image precious.
All the diversity, all the charm, and all the beauty of life are made up of light and shade.
Charm captures the visual cortex,
But intelligence captivate's souls.
