Since it seems to be my Henry Reed day, here is a misquotation from "Chard Whitlow", Reed's splendid parody of Eliot's Four Quartets:
As we get older we do not get any younger.
Seasons return, and today I am twenty-three,
And this time last year I was twenty-two,
And this time next year I shall be seventy.
