We do not necessarily improve with age: For better or for worse, we become more like ourselves.
– Peter Hall 

There is a certain kind of carefree that returns to you in old age, different from the carefree of youth when you didn’t know any better. It’s more like being free of caring. It isn’t joyous at all, as it was in youth, but it is a kind of freedom, and all kinds of freedom are precious in some way.
– Federico Fellini
