Ethel Percy Andrus

“What we do for ourselves dies with us. What we do for others and the world remains and is immortal.”

“It is only in the giving of oneself to others that we truly live.”

“Let us band together to prove that old age is not a defeat, but a victory; not a punishment, but a privilege.”

“To serve, not to be served.”

“Such to me is the new image of aging; growth in knowledge, service to others, and a zest for life.”
