Giving Age Pleasure

More From Malcolm Muggeridge

Crabbed age and youth cannot live together; youth is full of pleasure, age is full of care; youth like summer morn, age like winter weather; youth like summer brave, age like winter bare. youth is full sport, age's breath is short; youth is nimble, age is lame; youth is hot and bold, age is weak and cold; youth is wild, age is tame. age, i do abhor thee; youth, i do adore thee.
Summer Sports Winter
The complete life, the perfect pattern, includes old age as well as youth and maturity. the beauty of the morning and the radiance of noon are good, but it would be a very silly person who drew the curtains and turned on the light in order to shut out the tranquillity of the evening. old age has its pleasures, which, though different, are not less than the pleasures of youth.
Beauty Morning Silly
It is a great thing to be at your age... you are at a very specific time of age ... an age where you can follow all your dreams. but also at an age when you can change-you can change your dreams, you can change paths. when you start something when you're young, you should not decide 'this is it, this is my way and i will go all the way.' you have the age where you can change. you get experience, and maybe dislike it and go another way. your age is still an age of exploration.

The noblest relationship is marriage, that is, love. its nobility resides in its altruism, the desire to serve another beyond all the pleasures of the relationship; and in its refusal ever to regard the other as a thing, an object, a utilizability. sex is an exchange of pleasures, of needs; love is a giving without return. it is this giving without return, this helping without reward, this surplus of pure good, that identifies the uniqueness of man as well as the true nature of the true marriage. this is the quintessence the great alchemy of sex is for.

I once heard that quentin tarantino, who i obviously love and think is a genius, says that there's no such thing as guilty pleasure, there's only pleasures. and i do love that idea, because i do think that there's a pretentiousness when people make a list of their favorite things. i like to live a life where i don't think of my pleasures as guilty pleasures.

Memory haunts me from age to age, and passion leads me by the hand--evil have i done, and with sorrow have i made acquaintance from age to age, and from age to age evil shall i do, and sorrow shall i know till my redemption comes.

Similar Quotes
In the end, the only events of my life worth telling are those when the imperishable world erupted into this transitory one all other memories of travels, people and my surroundings have paled beside these interior happenings but my encounters with the 'other' reality, my bouts with the unconscious, are indelibly engraved on my memory. in that realm there has always been wealth in abundance, and everything else has lost importance by comparison.
Memories Reality People
My impression is that the elimination of memories greatly reduces the value of the experience.

The worst part of holding the memories is not the pain. it's the loneliness of it. memories need to be shared.
Lonely Pain Memories
No matter how far we go into the future, there will always be new things happening, new information coming in, new worlds to explore, a constantly expanding domain of life, consciousness, and memory.
