'Darling, learn these two words: Fuck. Off.' - Helen Mirren

Živimo u vremenu koje ne dopušta da opušteno starimo, osobito ako smo žene; gotovo se čini kao da prelazimo iz mladosti u kojoj smo vidljivije nego što želimo biti, ali kada nas nitko ne sluša, u doba kad možda imamo bolje šanse da nas se shvati ozbiljno, samo što postajemo nevidljive. Međutim, ove su žene živi dokaz u dizajnerskim haljinama da sazrijevanje ima svoje nesumnjive čari, a osim što su aktivne, prekrasne, uspješne i razmeću se talentom koji je uvijek bio silan, a sada je dodatno osnažen mudrošću i iskustvom, još se i sjajno zabavljaju!
Ako vas ponekad uhvati tjeskoba klizanja zrnaca kroz pješčani sat, samo se prisjetite mudrih riječi ovih fantastičnih žena i uživajte u svakom trenutku…
Kristin Scott Thomas

Peak KST*. Peak! I would say from about 46 to 52, that was when I looked my best.

No big deal.

Helen Mirren

Being old is cool, but oh, how I wish I were 18 right now with the strength and courage to say, ‘Fuck off.’ If I could go back and tell my younger self anything, it would be this, ‘Darling, learn these two words: Fuck. Off.’
Gillian Anderson

If you watch yourself on film, there is a certain point you see yourself... change. It’s arresting. It can either be completely traumatic or something that instigates a shift of consciousness towards thinking about what’s important.
Jane Fonda
I love age. It was Picasso who said that it takes a long time to become young. I like being over the hill because I’ve discovered there’s a whole new landscape.
Judi Dench

Rage, rage against the dying of the light… Never was a truer word spoken.
