Age is only a number.

[gilrain]

And an approximate measure of the gradual deterioration of your body.

[rollo_tommasi]

And, sadly, the sharper edges of the mind...

[diydsp]

... and, happily, the accumulation of wisdom to direct the remaining sharpness ...

[fluidcruft]

Perhaps sharpness impairs wisdom.

[talles]

So, again, just a number :)

[leed25d]

Nothing sad about it. You are actually better able to see the big picture I would say.

[moheeb]

No, I would say you are better able to understand the big picture, but less able to see it ;)

[dasil003]

arrogance you mean?

[codebolt]

Not just any number. It's the number of whole orbits you've made around the sun since leaving your mothers womb.
