Studies at Duke University’s Center of Aging and Human Development have clearly shown that people who devote their lives to service and action slow the aging process. Here are some examples:
At 93, George Bernard Shaw wrote the play, Farfetched Fables
At 90, Pablo Picasso was producing drawings and engravings
At 89, Mary Baker Eddy directed the Christian Science Church
At 89, Bob Hope finished a world tour for the USO
At 89, Albert Schweitzer headed a hospital in Africa
At 82, Winston Churchill wrote A History of the English Speaking Peoples
At 81, Goethe finished his play, Faust
