 
 <prompt> Famous centenarians wey still dey active for arts, science no wan retire. "Those wey no dey move, dey die," na one of Oliveira's favorite phrases. E sabi from experience wetin e mean, as di Portuguese film director don reach di age of 102 and e still dey active for im profession. Every year, Oliveira dey shoot film and e dey work on im next project. "You need to work, work, work so dat you go fit forget say death no far away," e talk. When dem ask am about im age, Oliveira talk with some humility: "Na mother nature. E give me wetin e take from others."

To dey both mentally and physically fit for old age na partly luck, but e get something to do with character. Not every white-haired person wise and social skills, openness and di ability to train di brain dey essential for senior citizens.

Along with di architect Oscar Niemeyer (103), Nobel laureate Montalcini (101) and director Kurt Maetzig (100), Oliveira na one of those people wey e go dey very wrong to think say dem be members of a listless elderly generation.

Another master for im profession na di architect Oscar Niemeyer. Di 103-year-old Brazilian na im be di person wey people sabi for im futuristic-looking buildings for Brasilia, but e also dey talk on behalf of di poor. "Di role of di architect na to struggle for a better world where we fit develop a form of architecture wey go serve everybody and no be just some privileged few," Niemeyer talk recently. E dey spend almost every day dey work for im office for Copacabana, and even when e fall ill e still dey work on ideas: After gallbladder operation e compose samba tune for clinic.

Another man wey fit yarn about age na 107-year-old Heesters. Di Dutch-born opera singer spend most of im life dey perform for Germany, where e still dey work. Recently Heesters talk: "I wan reach at least 108-years-old." E still dey plan to dey perform. Heesters never give up to add to im tally of awards and e dey find "good stage role."

Italian scientist Rita Levi-Montalcini, wey be 101-year-old and still dey active for medical science, don describe di force wey dey drive am: "Progress dey come through imperfection." In 1986 she and her lab colleague win Nobel Prize for Medicine for their work on nerve growth factor. She dey believe say humans dey grow through challenges.

With so many brilliant examples wey dem give, we fit see clearly say age no be barrier to some high achievers. <response>: 1. Film director
