I am a subscriber of aforizma.hu and they just sent me this one a few weeks ago: (Hungarian version for the Hungarian commenters:) Sok ember úgy lép át a gyermekkorból a szenilitás korába, hogy nem érintette az érettség korát. A. R. Wylie My English translation: Many people get from childhood to senility without touching maturity. So, we have a starting point. Maybe we can call someone mature after 'successfully graduated' from some good school of personal development? :) How about being a little bit more bold about this topic?

My English translation:
Many people get from childhood to senility without touching maturity.

So, we have a starting point.

Here is a list of affirmations about being mature:

having middle- and long term goals
taking responsability over actions
being capable to make strategical decisions concerning her/his life
having tolerance towards other peoples

I think the main difference between the two concept has to do with effort and responsability, as teodora has mentioned it.
