Here are a few quotes by Robert N. Butler:
1. ”Aging is not lost youth but a new stage of opportunity and strength.”
2. ”Ageism is as odious as racism and sexism.”
3. ”The greatest disease in the West today is not TB or leprosy; it is being unwanted, unloved, and uncared for. We can cure physical diseases with medicine, but the only cure for loneliness, despair, and hopelessness is love.”
4. ”Old age is not a disease – it is strength and survivorship, triumph over all kinds of vicissitudes and disappointments, trials and illnesses.”
5. ”The longevity revolution is an opportunity to be taken advantage of rather than a problem to be solved.”
6. ”Older people are like diamonds in the sun, reflecting and refracting light, illuminating life.”
7. ”Aging is not an illness, it is a pilgrimage filled with adventure and discovery.”
8. ”Old age is a precious gift. It is a time when we can truly savor the richness of life and reflect on the experiences that have shaped us.”
These quotes reflect Butler’s belief in the potential and value of older adults, as well as his advocacy against ageism and the importance of love and care for the elderly population.
