Betty Reid Soskin Quotes

...one of the luxuries of being older [is] you get to look back. It's like you get to live your life in blocks of time and then change comes. It's like reincarnation without ever leaving.

[W]e can only do what we are able to do at any given time and under a single set of circumstances, and we must not feel unsuccessful in any one attempt. The opportunity will rise again to do something else, and the courage to act will rise with it.

That's what's so interesting to me, that one of the things that comes with getting older is losing the need to be that concrete, that you learn to live comfortably with conflicting truths, that when I was younger, something had to be this way or that way, but now they can be both.
