“So the movement was anti-aging or shunning aging. We’re all aware of that. And now there’s a shift. That there’s enough people in that age group just fight back and say, ‘Hey, I’m not gonna be invisible. I count. I want to be recognized.’ There’s a whole wide world out there for people over this age. Retirement is not a death sentence.” - Patricia Greenberg
