At the age of 60, you see how short the runway is in front of you and how long the runway is behind you, and that you don't have much time left.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It's funny, because when you're younger you're in a rush to be 18 or 21 or whatever. But then you hit 30. And now, the days go by like hours. You think, 40, man, this could be the halfway point. It could be the three-quarters point, you know? Who knows?
Runway is like an adrenaline rush.
You slow down when you get older.
The older you get, the better you have to look, the higher you have to kick, the harder you have to work.
I always thought when I hit 50 years old that'd be it for the travel. I don't have to tell you - you wait at an airport, your flight's delayed, get on a 14-hour flight, get off, get stuck in traffic, you get to the hotel and the room service is closed.
Old age is like a plane flying through a storm. Once you're aboard, there's nothing you can do.
When I turned 59, I looked at that as the first day of my 60th year, so I've been 60 for the last 365 days, in my opinion. So I've been thinking all this year, I'm 60 - this is the time when I need to get some stuff done.
Age affects how people experience time.
Age is getting to know all the ways the world turns, so that if you cannot turn the world the way you want, you can at least get out of the way so you won't get run over.
I'm going to be 80, walking with a stick down the runway.
