Do you think age of 40 marks the beginning of mature life for us?

A Chinese knowledgable master Confucius had said that "men have no doubts at age of 40" which means we can understand many truth of life from 40 years old after many failure and mistakes in life struggle, then we can benefit and learn a lot from those experience and get to the road to the peaceful mind. Do you think so?

I think that your smart Confucius is absolutely right, me too I think that 40 years is a the right age to understand a lot of things we couldn't understand before.
I live in Italia, in my country there is a lot of respect to this great master, they say the moral maxims by Confucius very often.
I'm 40 and I can adhere to what he says.

yes,i think so.Accepting responsibility is a sign of maturity,and find help in dealing with it is a sign that we are indeed getting older and wiser,and that actually makes us more responsible.We learned the importance of responsibility and dependability.
