"Society tells you to get old, and everybody settles for what they're told. What makes you old is repeating yourself. I say, 'Your glands get stimulation from new experiences."
"When you are passionate about life, it keeps you young. Sometimes I wake up at 4 A.M. just to see how my roses look."
"I don't let the fear factor age me. “You wash your face, take a good bath, make yourself smell nice--I even wear perfume sometimes when I'm alone--and put on a wonderful nightgown that feels good against your skin, even if you're sleeping alone -- Especially if you're sleeping alone. Then you're ready to give yourself this incredible night where you escape out of your body and you sleep--take a vacation as your body regenerates and you celebrate your femininity."
“Women should never lose being flirtatious--not when you're 50,60,90. Of course, it must be done with taste, but flirting is like a ... great laugh that keeps you young and joyous.”
"If there's something that should make women feel like goddesses, it should be our bodies, and instead it's the one thing that makes us feel unworthy. Insecure. Obsessed. Dirty. Explain this to me."

"Why do women focus on what's wrong with them instead of what's right? We get so obsessed with the idea of happiness that comes only in this one box. Happiness slaps you in the face a thousand times and you never notice it because you are so fixated on the box."
The one and only, Salma! I heart you! xoxo

i am so in love with her. and in a culture that is obsessed with staying young, it's so refreshing that she loves growing old.
She's so pretty!

It's easy to not fear age when you apparently never do! *Jealous* hahaha.

"Why do women focus on what's wrong with them instead of what's right?"
Absolutely true! I agree with everything she says, the more you fear getting older, the more you will age.
You're fighting the natural course of life. That's stressful. Mother Nature is an Amazon warrior who will always have the upper hand!
I am very happy to be my age -40- don't understand women are reticent to disclose ages as we get older.
Hello? We're all getting older!
...and we just get better. Youth fades. Vitality doesn't. Salma proves that.
