It wasn't really touching to be young; it was touching not to be young, because you had less of life left. touching to be thirty; more touching to be forty; tragic to be fifty; and heartbreaking to be sixty. as to seventy, as to eighty, one would feel as one did during the last dance of a ball, tired but fey in the paling dawn, desperately making the most of each bar of music before one went home to bed.

It Wasn't Really Touching To Be Young;

Rose Macaulay
It wasn't really touching to be young; it was touching not to be young, because you had less of life left. touching to be thirty; more touching to be forty; tragic to be fifty; and heartbreaking to be sixty. as to seventy, as to eighty, one would feel as one did during the last dance of a ball, tired but fey in the paling dawn, desperately making the most of each bar of music before one went home to bed.
