All the information on ageism under one roof
The Impact Center for the Study of Ageism and Old Age
“A Site for All Ages” is the Israeli home for combating ageism. Ageism is the way we think about, feel about, and behave toward people because of their age. This social phenomenon is expressed in stereotyping, prejudice, and discrimination. Ageism can be directed at people of all ages, but is most prevalent and most hurtful against older people.
Old man, take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me
The whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes
And you can tell that's true
״

Old Man | Neil Young

and view my wasting skin,
and say, ‘would God it came to pass,
my heart had shrunk as thin!’

I look into my glass | Thomas Hardy
For then I, undistrest
by hearts grown
cold to me,
could lonely wait my endless rest
with equanimity
