Gabriel Garcia Marquez Quotes

I think age is just something written down on a piece of paper. I mean, you come across 20-year-olds who are like old people sometimes. I've never taken much account of age throughout my life - my own or anyone else's.

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

I'm not interested in age. People who tell me their age are silly. You're as old as you feel.

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 like a 27-year-old; I feel I am way mature than someone that age.

Age is not based on chronology, but psychology.

We tend to think of age only in time, but I don't think it has much to do with time at all; there's a whole load of other things. I've met 16-year-olds who are old and 90-year-olds who are young.

Age is whatever you think it is. You are as old as you think you are.

I realise I'm still a child, though I do feel older. I recently did an on-line test called 'What's Your True Age?' My result was 50-60 years old.

I always felt older than my years, maybe because I was married to someone older.

A few years ago, I got to a point where I realised that the only way you can tell someone's age is how they live their life. The candles on the cake mean absolutely nothing.

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

It is not how old you are, but how you are old.

Age is just a number for me! A person is as young as he feels.

How old would you be if you didn't know how old you were?

The age difference has never been a thing. I think Patrick's work certainly keeps him young. What is young, though?

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

I am only about 26 in my head.

I've grown up, but not grown old; I hope there's a difference.

Years do not always make age.

People like to say, "You're only as old as you feel," but it isn't true. It's just something old people say to make themselves feel good about their age. You're as old as you are.

I am not old, but my young way was never the way to age.

When you're 16, you think 28 is so old! And then you get to 28 and it's fabulous. You think, then, what about 42? Ugh! And then 42 is great. As you reach each age, you gain the understanding you need to deal with it and enjoy it.

Though it sounds absurd, it is true to say I felt younger at sixty than I felt at twenty.

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.
