Famous Sayings

The old believe everything the middle-aged suspect



The old believe everything; the middle-aged suspect everything; the young know everything.

-Oscar Wilde

A quick comment:

Here’s another famous saying regarding the stages of growth, maturity and the characteristics that come with age.

If it’s anyone that can loose their life savings, it’s the old…they do tend to grow a bit more than healthy trust…while the middle age have a bit too much the comes paranoia….the young are just out for themselves so they “know it all”, right?…

What to do with this famous saying:

  • Help older people who are often too gullible
  • Help middle aged people who are too suspicious
  • Help the young who usually don’t want to listen, if they’ll listen
  • Don’t make the same mistakes at the various stages of life yourself!

Why is that?

Why do the young act like they know it all?

Why do the middle age get suspicious and cynical of everything?

Why do the old trust and believe everything?

Isn’t there a better balance here that all of us could strike?!
