About This Quote

This quote needs no introduction—at least for now. We're working on adding more context soon.

Interpretation

The saying proposes that “old age” is less a biological fact than a change in perception. To remain “young” is to keep an active, receptive attention to beauty—whether in people, nature, art, or ordinary experience—through every stage of life. The emphasis falls on continuity (“every age of life”): the capacity for wonder and aesthetic appreciation becomes a kind of inner vitality that resists cynicism, resignation, and emotional narrowing. In this sense, the quote frames aging as a spiritual or psychological process, suggesting that the loss of youth is not inevitable but often self-inflicted through dulled sensibility.
