When you're 16, 30 seems ancient. When you're 30, 45 seems ancient. When you're 45, 60 seems ancient. When you're 60, nothing seems ancient.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We all have friends and loved ones who say 60's the new 30. No. Sixty's the new 60.
Time starts out as a notion. But after you turn fifty, time is not a notion anymore but a fact that you start feeling clearly, and in a way, it pushes you to become present in the present.
To me, old age is always fifteen years older than I am.
We tend to think of age only in time, but I don't think it has much to do with time at all; there's a whole load of other things. I've met 16-year-olds who are old and 90-year-olds who are young.
Age is whatever you think it is. You are as old as you think you are.
Middle age is when your age starts to show around your middle.
There's no such thing as old age. I'm no different now than I was 50 years ago. I'm just having more fun.
Forty is the old age of youth, fifty is the youth of old age.
I don't know why people are so obsessed with age anyway. I mean, 90 is the new 70; 70 is the new 50 and 50 is the new 40; so the whole act-your-age thing? Only up to a point.
We're the generation that says 60 is the new 30. We don't let the numbers shape us; we're reshaping the numbers.
