"Stop giving a f*ck about what other people think. In my early hundredsomethings, I was completely preoccupied with how I was perceived by others. I would constantly fret over questions such as 'Do my great-grandchildren like me?' Now I know that it truly doesn't matter if they like you or not-tune out the haters and just friggin' do you."
"Live in the moment. I spent so much of my early hundreds wishing that I could just fast-forward to being a hundred and thirty years old. Your life is happening now. Be present and live in the moment-there will be plenty of time later to enjoy having your photo in the Guinness Book of Records under the title 'Most Ancient by a Landslide.'"
"You'll regret that tattoo. At the time, I thought that getting 'I'VE EXPERIENCED EIGHTEEN PRESIDENTIAL ADMINISTRATIONS' inked on my neck was a great idea. Now that I've lived through five more administrations, it just feels stupid."
"I shouldn't have had sex with the Wright Brothers. Sleeping around can be fun and empowering, but now I realize that sex is more meaningful when it's with someone you love rather than someone who invented a flying machine."
