Shweta Tripathi Quotes

Age isn't how old you are but how old you feel.

Age is not based on chronology, but psychology.

What I thought 41 would be at 26 is definitely not what I feel now. I still feel incredibly youthful on the inside, in my brain.

You're only as old as you feel.

I can't age on the inside, and I'm totally okay with that. I have no need to grow up and see myself as mature.

I take my craft seriously, of course, but I don't feel the need to always play a certain character or a certain part or persona. I'm not going to cut something out of my life because it's not 'my image.' I want to be open enough that if I love something, I can do it, and it will add to myself as an entertainer.

I learned a woman is never an old woman.

I've been accused of being too flexible, too willing to mold myself to men, and that's something I'm constantly working on.

People, of all ages, are far more open than you might think to being moved in new ways.

I paint and I draw and I write and I do other things too, and recently some people at school were asking if I'd ever publish any of my work. But I almost feel like I would have to publish it under another name because there's a definition of me out there that feels kind of stuck in the moment when it was formed.

I consider you as old as you look and feel. And in that case I feel - I feel I'm about 39, like Jack Benny.

I think there are certain ways that people are always themselves, but I do think people change.

For me, your real age is not the age on your ID. That's just a date when you were born.

I don't feel the need to define nothin' to nobody, because I'm always changing. Why say that I'm this or that when I might not be tomorrow? I'm gonna follow my own feelings and my own heart.

My life has changed because my access has changed, and so has the level of privacy in my life, but these are champagne problems, because I wouldn't rather be back auditioning. And change can be really good - as long as your character is intact.

I don't have any fear of turning 30. But maybe that's because I know I'm never going to be 30 mentally at any point in my life!

You are never too young to learn, never too old to change.

Because I've been so blessed with a background in nursing and spent so much time with patients at a really intimate, vulnerable time in their lives, the one lesson I've learned is that you never turn down a challenge where you can keep your creative integrity and your heart and soul and your sense of self.

I care about being creative and expressing myself.

It's helpful to just hear things through friends' ears, people who know you well. I guess when I started Dirty Projectors, when I was, like, 20, I always imagined it would be kind of like an amphibious vehicle: something that could go with me wherever I need to go. That kind of constant change has been in the DNA from the beginning.
