It’s not that I’m particularly worried about growing old. Nor am I all that bothered about wrinkles, grey hair and all that. BUT. Major but. I don’t like the idea of dying — not when i have so much left to do!

Like riding through Paris in a sports car with the warm wind in my hair, to mention one. Anna Belfrage
