Actress Daryl Hannah is embracing her forties - because she lacked the life experience to fully enjoy herself in her younger days. The 47-year-old blasts the myth that youth is the best time of life, insisting she spent hers anxious and unhappy.

The Kill Bill star explains, "I hated being young. Everyone says how wonderful it is to be a young person. That is far from the case for many people, but they dare not say it at the time. Aging is great. Maturity has brought me peace of mind. When I look back, I could have saved myself so much anxiety."
