Actress Helen Mirren shared her feelings about the true meaning of longevity—and why she doesn’t appreciate the tech sector’s approach to it.
“To me, the word longevity is being active, proactive, and productive over a long period of one’s life,” Mirren, 80, told Elle magazine after writer Kathleen Hou asked the Oscar-winning actress how she defines the term.
“Living has to do with enjoying the physical elements of life; the beauty of nature; the excitement of professional success, if you’re lucky enough to have it; and family and kids,” Mirren said, adding, “Longevity means contributing in as many diverse ways as possible, for as long as possible.”
