I bet Diane has some gorgeous jewelry, but none may be as beautiful as what’s been coming out of her mouth recently. This 76-year-old former fashion designer has become a pro-aging advocate. Feel free to quote her (her wisdom needs to be shared).
Here are nine of her best quotes:
“Aging is proof of living, not decay.”
“Instead of the typical age question of ‘How old are you?’ The question that’s more appropriate is ‘How Long Have You Lived?’”
“Aging releases us of the burden of the future. And allows us to be in the moment, to focus on what matters.”
“Confidence. If you have it, you can make anything look good.”
“My best friend is me, and I take good care of me.”
“Beauty is perfect in its imperfections. So you just have to go with the imperfections.”
“I travel light. I think the most important thing is to be in a good mood and enjoy life, wherever you are.”
“My face carries all my memories. Why would I erase them?”
“I’ve always liked wrinkles. When I was a young girl, I used to make lines on my face with my nails because I loved Jeanne Moreau. I always wanted to be older; I always added years to my life. For the longest time, if people thought I was older, I would take it as a compliment.”
