Quote by Knut Hamsun
In old age we are like a batch of letters that someone has sent. We are no longer in the past, we have arrived.

Summary
This quote suggests that in old age, our experiences and lessons learned shape who we are in the present. We are likened to a batch of letters that have been sent, implying that our past is set and unchangeable. We have transitioned from the phase of preparation and anticipation to the state of being. It implies a sense of acceptance and reflection on the journey that has brought us to where we are now.
