Birthday wording

Been thinking of how to do FIL's 70th birthday invitation. Here's some stuff for the charrette bin....

Age is opportunity no less than youth itself. --Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

A man is not old until regrets take the place of dreams. --John Barrymore

Grow old with me! The best is yet to be. --Robert Browning

To be 70 years young is sometimes far more cheerful and hopeful than to be forty years old. --Oliver Wendell Holmes

Youth has no age. --Pablo Picasso
