When I Grow Too Old to Dream
“I have always been amazed
at the way an ordinary observer lends so much more
credence and attaches so much more importance to waking events than to those
occurring in dreams.... Man... is above all the plaything of his memory.”
-
André Breton,
“Manifesto of Surrealism,”
1924
(09 Feb 1896 - 28 Sept 1966) |

“I
always wear roller skates when I ride my bicycle. The more wheels the better,
and that's what makes me a better lover. You know you want to go for a spin.
I'll bring the record player, if you bring 1982 and her little sister, Elton
John.”

| His team was 20 points behind and
the coach was desperate, so he looked down the bench to his 330 pound
tackle who was not his brightest player.
The coach called him over and asked
him, "If I put you in, can you play ruthlessly?"
"I sure can, Coach! Which one is Ruthless Lee?" |

When I Grow Too Old to Dream
Lyrics by
Oscar Hammerstein II
(12 July 1895 – 23 Aug 1960)
Music by
Sigmund Romberg
(29 July 1887 – 09 Nov 1951), 1934
From the 1935 movie 'The Night Is Young'
We have been gay, going our way
Life has been beautiful, we have been young
After you've gone, life will go on
Like an old song we have sung
When I grow too old to dream
I'll have you to remember
When I grow too old to dream
Your love will live in my heart
So, kiss me my sweet
And so let us part
And when I grow too old to dream
That kiss will live in my heart
And when I grow too old to dream
Your love will live in my heart
