" Oh, for God’s sake. Forty-nine is extremely young. If forty-nine is not young, that would make me old, and I am not old. I have reached the age of maturity to which all humans must particularly aspire; to dismiss this pinnacle of perfection as old age is to demean all of humankind. "

― Courtney Milan , Mrs. Martin’s Incomparable Adventure (The Worth Saga, #2.75)
