Feeling Old?

After all, what is the chief sign of growing old? Is it not the feeling that we know all there is to be known? It is not years which make people old; it is ruts, and a limitation of interests. When we no longer care about anything except our own interests, we are then old, it matters not whether our years be twenty or eighty.
-Handbook of Nature Study by Anna Botsford Comstock, pg.4

  1. I love this quote! I have thought about it since I read it in your post a few days ago and it is so true.

    Thanks for sharing!
