I found a very interesting quote on internet today.
That is "Age is something that doesn’t matter, unless you are a cheese." by Luis Bunuel.
According to my research, he is a film director who is original from Spain.
I think that he have a rich humor sense, and I love it.
As we get older, we are become to make excuses for everything.
Meanwhile, the word he said gives me the push to learn English.

Orange is for word and phrases I removed. Purple is for changes I made. I changed some words to sound more natural! The words a native english speaker would use in this situation! I would like to point out the reason I changed it from “it is ‘age is something...’” to “It was, ‘Age is something...’” is because you **found** the quote which is past tense so you should provide the quote past tense as well!

I found a very interesting quote on internet today.That It is "Age is something that doesn’t matter, unless you are a cheese." by Luis Bunuel.
According to my research, he is was a film director who is was originally from Spain. (He is dead so use past tense)
I think that he have has a rich humor sense, and I love it. (You can use past tense or present here)
As we get older, we are becoming (present continuous) to make excuses for everything.(I don't understand why this sentence is here. What does it have to do with his work? Also it would be better to say "we are starting to make excuses" not "becoming to make excuses")
Meanwhile (Meanwhile is not necessary here) , the words he said gives me the push to learn English.
Good Job!! It is a great quote!
