I'm in a... Billy Joel - "State of Mind"

On Aging:

"I'm not a looking back kind of person. What I've realized about turning 60 is I'm not just one age, I'm every age I've ever been. Sometimes I'm 11, sometimes 16, sometimes I'm 25, sometimes I'm 42, sometimes I'm in my 50s. I'm all over the place. And it comes in handy, especially in this line of work."

On Being a Musician:

"I don't think there will ever be a time when I stop being a musician. Possibly not being a performer, possibly not recording anymore, but I will always be a musician."


I guess that also holds true for a poet. Whether they write anymore or ever get published again, they'll always be poets.
