As I approve of a youth that has something of the old man in him, so I am no less pleased with an old man that has something of the youth. He that follows this rule may be old in body, but can never be so in mind.

-- Marcus Tullius Cicero 西塞罗

正如我赞同一个年轻人身上有一点老人的气质一样，我对一个老人身上有一点年轻人的气质也同样感到高兴。遵守这条规则的人，身体可能会变老，但思想永远不会变老。

所以人们认为我一直在谎报年龄?是记录错了。我从来没有告诉过任何人我有多大。他们一问我，我就说:‘这不关你的事。所以这意味着我从来没有谎报过自己的年龄。现在这是真的!
