Summary

This quote suggests that the passing of time and accumulation of life experiences have a greater impact on a person's mental state and perspectives than on their physical appearance. It implies that the mind undergoes significant changes and develops wrinkles metaphorically, representing the marks left by the challenges, joys, learnings, and growths experienced throughout one's life. Unlike physical wrinkles that are evident, these mental imprints might not always be visible to others, but they shape one's character, thoughts, and overall outlook on life.
