The secret of long life is double careers. One to about age sixty, then another for the next thirty years.

The years after 50 can be a time of great productivity, meaningful work, pleasure, creativity, and innovation. It's a huge opportunity.

The whole concept behind 'Forty Chances' is really a mindset: If everybody thought they had to put themselves out of business in 40 years, you had 40 chances to succeed in what your primary goals are, you would probably be more urgent and you would be forced to change quicker.

I'm 37, I'm pretty fit and feel I have another eight years left - which means there's 32 Majors still to go at.

I'm not really too worried about what I'm gonna do next, because I just think of my career as, like, having sixty years ahead of me.

I'm so lucky to have a career in my fifties. And to still have the desire to do it. I don't think about retirement.

There was a point where there was a vision that we'll get to a certain age, and then we'll retire and be happy. Now that's like, that's being compromised every day. So I think we have to start living happy now and stop waiting for the forty years because by then you'll be so sick, you wouldn't enjoy it anyway.

Work and play go hand in hand. A lot of people want to work, work, and work until 40, and then relax. Who says you'll get to 40? Or 50? Who knows what'll happen in the next five minutes? The only reality is the present. And if you can't learn to live in the moment, you'll never be content.

The fact that I spend a lot of time in the 18th century doesn't mean I'm not concerned with the 21st.

When you reach a certain age in life, time becomes more important than money, and I think that happens in your 50s.
