“She loved the fact he was older than her and more experienced, he had so much to teach her and she couldn’t wait to learn.”
― Kassandra Cross, Carrie's First Time

“Maybe I should have been frightened of him. This older man who saw that I was alone, who felt like I owed him something, which was the worst thing a man like that could feel.”
― Emma Cline, The Girls

“Older men were better companions, they were seasoned lovers, they knew the world, they knew themselves. Unlike younger men, they held their emotions in balance. They had read more, seen more, they were warmer, kinder, less boastful, more tolerant, less violent. They were more interesting, they could choose the wine. They had more money.”
― Ian McEwan, Solar

“The way you’re smiling a little makes me think maybe you wouldn’t mind an older man.”
― Jessica Hawkins, Night Fever

“It’s all right now, Louisa: it’s all right, young Thomas,â€� said Mr. Bounderby; ‘you won’t do so any more. I’ll answer for it’s being all over with father. Well, Louisa, that’s worth a kiss, isn’t it?â€�

‘You can take one, Mr. Bounderby,� returned Louisa, when she had coldly paused, and slowly walked across the room, and p. 18ungraciously raised her cheek towards him, with her face turned away.

‘Always my pet; ain’t you, Louisa?� said Mr. Bounderby. ‘Good-bye, Louisa!�

He went his way, but she stood on the same spot, rubbing the cheek he had kissed, with her handkerchief, until it was burning red. She was still doing this, five minutes afterwards.

‘What are you about, Loo?� her brother sulkily remonstrated. ‘You’ll rub a hole in your face.�

‘You may cut the piece out with your penknife if you like, Tom. I wouldn’t cry!”
― Charles Dickens

“Age has finally crept up on a man when he develops an interest in lame jokes, comfortable cardigans and uncoordinated dancing.”
― Stewart Stafford

“Serena maintains today that as George grew older he also grew out of his mind. Many men do, in my experience. Life does not come up to their expectations: they grow older, and disappointed. At fifty they realise others have passed them by, made more money, won more respect. Their sexual drive fades and the self-esteem that goes with it. They take to litigation and shake their fists at other drivers.”
― Fay Weldon, She May Not Leave

“I am lucky with Sebastian. He has managed to get past seventy without going doolally, getting depressed, splashed by nerve poison, changing his nature, trusting demented therapists, chasing after little girls as some men do, forgetting to zip up his flies, dribbling his food, champing false teeth, shuffling in slippers, quarreling with neighbours, cursing his enemies, shaking his fist Lear-like at the skies: all the things â€� Wanda is quite right â€� that men tend to do as they get older.”
― Fay Weldon, She May Not Leave
