Retirement Quotes

May 12, 2007 by sachinskg

Many people have a lot of things to say about retirement. If you could compile a book of all the statements of all retirees in history, you would have a rich collection of wisdom and advice.

Although every single quote is impossible to know, there are compilations known as retirement quotes. And the best place to find these quotations are on the Internet. Simply run a few select keywords on the major search engines and you will find an impressive list of websites dedicated to quotes.

Among them you will find retirement quotes, which provide wit, humor, reflection, inspiration and hope for the future.

Some of the best quotes come from famous people who have lived retirement to the full, such as late comedian George Burns, who lived until he was 100. These wise retirees have gone through almost everything life has to offer and are able to turn their life experiences into a few short and well-chosen words.

Retirement quotes often mention death. However, rather than being morbid, these quotes mostly evoke realism with a touch of humor. After all, why fear the inevitable. At the same time, these quotes have the same message to retirees – you still have many years in front of you so make the most of it. Retirement is not the end of the world.

You might want to collect these retirement quotes and compile them into a book that you could refer to whenever you want some light entertainment. You may even take your favorite quotes and have them etched on to ornate mounts or small placards to place around your house.

You will find members of your household as well as guests reading these words of wisdom over and over again, never tiring of the inspiration behind the prose.

In your search for retirement quotes, make sure you look at the sayings of retirees from other countries and cultures. You will be surprised at how people from another corner of the earth have the same hopes and dream as you do.
