With age comes wisdom, or at least we hope it does. As we get older, we collect life lessons that we can pass along to younger generations, sometimes with lengthy stories, and sometimes with quippy sayings. Adages like “A penny saved is a penny earned,” or “Early to bed, early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise,” have been part of our collective treasure chest of life advice for generations, but the aphorisms that spring from the experience of our loved ones and mentors are often the most meaningful.
