Who said "live until you are old and learn until you are old"?

Paragraph 1: "Live and learn" comes from the mouth of Solon, a famous politician in ancient Athens, and is literally translated as "The older I get, the more I learn." Solon won the title of "The First Poet of Athens" in his early years; before and after the implementation of the "Solon Reform" that destroyed the clan system, he traveled around for inspections; in his later years, he retired at home, engaged in research and writing, and often chanted "Live and learn" To encourage oneself. The famous biographer Plutarch quoted this famous saying in "The Life of Solon". Rousseau, the French enlightener in the 18th century, quoted and developed it in his later work "The Reveries of a Solitary Walker". Since then, Solon's famous saying has been passed down to this day. Myth 2: Live until you are old, learn until you are old, and transform until you are old.
