“People talk to old people like they're children.'Oh you're very old aren't you?' Yeah I'm old. I'm not stupid.”
“Peter, you're twelve years old. I'm ten. They have a word for people our age. They call us children and they treat us like mice.”
“I'm not interested in age. People who tell me their age are silly. You're as old as you feel.”
“When you're young you can't work out the age of an adult - they're just quite old, old, or very old.”
“You're very old, aren't you?""Just as old as my tongue and a little older than my teeth.”
“For some reason, when people meet me and find out I'm a writer they always ask if I write children's books. Um... please don't let your kids read my books. Well, unless your kids are in their 30s or something...then yeah, they're old enough. LOL”
