People expect old men to die, <br />They do not really mourn old men. <br />Old men are different. People look <br />At them with eyes that wonder when… <br />People watch with unshocked eyes; <br />But the old men know when an old man dies.<br /><br />Ogden Nash<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/old-men/
