Aging Quote by Woody Allen
““There's an old joke. Two elderly women are at a mountain resort. One of them says, "Boy, the food at this place is really terrible." The other one says, "Yeah, I know, and such small portions." Well, that's essentially how I feel about life. Full of loneliness and misery and suffering and unhappiness, and it's all over much too quickly.””
