Old people don’t quote aphorisms and proverbs to bore young people. They mainly do it because it gets harder and harder to remember more complicated things. Boring young people is just a nice-to-have side-effect.

When I was 25 I could hold complex gantt charts for big projects in my head. Now I can only do management aphorisms.

Isn't part of this growing up and realising that "holding complex concepts in your head" isn't impressive, useful, or even particularly sensible? If it's not documented, visible, legible, and collectively agreed; it ain't worth a damn.
