I think I've become more aware of aging in the last couple of years because of friends dying of cancer or friends' parents dying and myself - I'm still healthy, but I'm aging, and that's something that I think about more, even though I shouldn't be too concerned.

From my perspective, there's no reason to be afraid of aging, because if you age, you're lucky! The alternative is death.

Any fear of aging, I think, is simply vanity.

I feel about aging the way William Saroyan said he felt about death: Everybody has to do it, but I always believed an exception would be made in my case.

I am not afraid of aging, but more afraid of people's reactions to my aging.

I'm partly obsessed by aging gracefully.

Everything about aging in my experience so far has been a plus. Except the death part!

I'm not afraid of aging.

As you get older, you think about things differently from when you do in your twenties, when you think you'll live forever.
