Summary

This quote implies that at the age of forty, one begins to transition from the young stage of their life to the more mature phase. It suggests that forty is considered a turning point where individuals start to leave behind the illusions and uncertainties of youth and transition into a more settled and experienced period. On the other hand, at fifty, individuals are still youthful and have the ability to embrace life with enthusiasm and vitality, despite being considered in the older stage of life. This quote emphasizes the idea that age is subjective and should not limit one's outlook or potential.
