I don't understand people getting depressed about getting older. There is nothing you can do about it, so you might as well embrace it.

In getting older, I find myself becoming progressively more ineffectual in a lot of different ways, and part of that is down to no longer having the youthful feeling that what you're doing has any true impact.

As you get older you realise that nothing lasts forever. It's not depressing, but it does make moments more intense.

The only person who can say they're happy getting old is someone who isn't actually old yet. Every day, I get less and less happy about that idea.

I still get awful depression. It's who I am.

Now, I'm getting a little older, got more responsibility, I don't need to be depressed.

If you're always battling against getting older, you're always going to be unhappy, because it's going to happen anyhow.

I feel lucky to be getting older. The fact that I made it to 30 and then 40 was big enough. So I can't get too down on getting older; otherwise, it kind of undoes everything I've fought for.

The great thing about getting older is that you become more mellow. Things aren't as black and white, and you become much more tolerant. You can see the good in things much more easily rather than getting enraged as you used to do when you were young.
