There are literally hundreds if not thousands of articles on aging gracefully. In Every Man a King, Orison Swett Marden muses, 'Better than the art of growing old gracefully is the secret of not growing old at all.” Although Marden’s 1906 “secret” focused on how mind and thought can influence one’s longevity, today’s headlines portray the “secret” as a pill which purports to extend the normal human age span an additional forty years.
