Haile Gebrselassie Quotes

I've always looked old for my age.

Age is a number and nothing more.

Some days, you feel like a 22-year-old and some days you feel like a 40-year-old.

Age is like love, it cannot be hid.

Youth is the gift of nature, but age is a work of art.

We're both getting older, our children are starting to leave home. But I can say that I'm just as passionate a songwriter now in my 50s as I was in my 20s. But instead of talking about the general kind of angst that I felt as a teenager, I'm writing about more specific issues.

I generally don't think one's age is all that meaningful - there are 50-year-olds who still act and think like children.

You picture yourself as being 22 always, and so it's very bizarre when you're not.

To think, when one is no longer young, when one is not yet old, that one is no longer young, that one is not yet old, that is perhaps something.

There's no such thing as old age. I'm no different now than I was 50 years ago. I'm just having more fun.
