You know, there was a time I’d have agreed with this, but yesterday at nearly 51 I walked up the emergency stairs of the UK’s 2nd tallest building 5 times, passing people well under half my age each time… never could have done that when I was physically young.

If you don’t completely destroy the joints, heart, kidney, liver, and lungs when your mind is young and stupid the much wiser and (hopefully) smarter mind you’ll earn can push the slightly more knackered bits further and faster then you’d earlier have thought you could go.
