It seems that when you get to a certain age you almost give yourself permission to misbehave and say what you think. People allow it, with very old people.

When you get to a certain age, there is no coming back.

People think they have to be ambitious. But at a certain age, all you want is to be around nice, decent people.

People have preconceptions about women of a certain age.

Why do people talk of the horrors of old age? It's great. I feel like a fine old car with the parts gradually wearing out, but I'm not complaining, ... Those who find growing old terrible are people who haven't done what they wanted with their lives.

In my old age I've come to find that if you respect other people, you feel better about yourself.
