How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are.

Summary

This quote, often credited to Satchel Paige, invites us to ponder the impact of our perception of age on our lives. It challenges the notion that our age is solely determined by our chronological years and encourages us to rethink the significance of time. By asking how old we would feel without the knowledge of our numerical age, it suggests that age is, in essence, a state of mind. The quote prompts us to reflect on the power of mindset and the role it plays in shaping our experiences and attitudes towards aging.
