"When you’re young you think that time moves forward. At 80 you know that it doesn’t, it stands still. We’re the ones that move," 85-year-old singer writes in op-ed tied to Trump's birthday
Bob Dylan shared the pros and cons of aging in a rare op-ed tied to Donald Trump’s 80th birthday.
With the president turning 80 (and celebrating with a UFC bash) on Sunday, the New York Times asked several prominent octogenarians — like Liza Minnelli, Robert De Niro, Art Garfunkel, and the 85-year-old Dylan — about the best and worst things about the milestone birthday.
“The best thing about being 80 is that you outlive the clocks that have been chasing you. It’s freedom from that lie that anything was ever under control,” Dylan said about turning 80. “You don’t chase the parade anymore. You’re an old king from some vanished country. You’re harder to program.”
