![“I celebrated [my 50th birthday] by throwing a big bowl on the pottery wheel, then going for a water ski at the lake on our property in the Catskills, and that night, skinny-dipping under the stars. Just being free and joyful. And that's how I [felt] about turning 50.” quote by Marcia Gay Harden](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/263/marcia-gay-harden-8656_50th-birthday_i-celebrated-my-50th-birthday-by-throwin_568039.jpg)
