We grow old by deserting our ideals." — Samuel Ullman At 96, the 'Third Part of Life' May Be the Best of All At 96 years-old, Alice McGinty does resistance training three times a week, travels to Costa Rican jungles, and shows her paintings -- work that has grown more vivid and abstract since macular degeneration narrowed her world to color alone.
