I’m 53, and the only reason I’m happy is because I don’t have to look at myself every day. Kids see us old guys and they don’t want to look like that. They like being young and good looking. As you age, you realize, “Hey! I don’t have to look at myself, it’s everyone else’s problem!” Of course, mirrors are a lot less fascinating.

Pretty funny, I'm 57 and rarely look in the mirror anymore. But I do enjoy life more than ever and was a mostly happy soul until this election year came along.

When you're 20 you worry what everyone thinks about you.

When you're 40 you don't give a damn what anybody thinks about you.

When you're 60 you realize no one ever thought about you at all.
