Nancy Friday
The terror of the atom age is not the violence of the new power but the speed of man’s adjustment to it, the speed of his acceptance.

Francis Bacon
I’m just sick of the way things are. We’re in an age in which we can’t live without accepting the logic of the market. Contemporary politics is all about short-term pragmatism. We have abandoned religion and philosophy… What we have left is the automatisation of doing what the market tells us.
Jose Mujica
Nature gives you the face you have at twenty; it is up to you to merit the face you have at fifty.

George Orwell
The divine right of husbands, like the divine right of kings, may, it is hoped, in this enlightened age, be contested without danger.

Joshua Foer

Yo-Yo Ma
The question isn’t at what age I want to retire, it’s at what income.

Clint Eastwood
I must confess, I was born at a very early age.
Groucho Marx
I think you can make fun of anything except things people can’t help. They can’t help their race or their sex or their age, so you ridicule their pretension or their ego instead. You can ridicule ideas – ideas don’t have feelings. You can ridicule an idea that someone holds without hurting them.

Brad Pitt
You just never know when you’re living in a golden age.
Alexander Payne
When we looked at the life cycle in our 40s, we looked to old people for wisdom. At 80, though, we look at other 80-year-olds to see who got wise and who not. Lots of old people don’t get wise, but you don’t get wise unless you age.
Erik Erikson
It is not the young people that degenerate; they are not spoiled till those of mature age are already sunk into corruption.

Cathy Freeman
Everyone talks about age, but it’s not about age. It’s about work ethic. Winning never gets old.

Katharine Hepburn
The golden age has not passed; it lies in the future.

Ashton Kutcher
You had to learn at a certain age what sarcasm is, you know?
Penny Marshall
Age puzzles me. I thought it was a quiet time. My seventies were interesting and fairly serene, but my eighties are passionate. I grow more intense as I age.
Florida Scott-Maxwell
I don’t believe in happy endings, but I do believe in happy travels, because ultimately, you die at a very young age, or you live long enough to watch your friends die. It’s a mean thing, life.
George Clooney
Men are like wine – some turn to vinegar, but the best improve with age.
Pope John XXIII
Old age is the most unexpected of all things that happen to a man.

Liv Tyler
Ours is essentially a tragic age, so we refuse to take it tragically.
D. H. Lawrence

Yuichiro Miura
I think the biggest disease the world suffers from in this day and age is the disease of people feeling unloved. I know that I can give love for a minute, for half an hour, for a day, for a month, but I can give. I am very happy to do that, I want to do that.
Princess Diana

Alan Kay
Age merely shows what children we remain.

John Singer Sargent
To teach how to live without certainty and yet without being paralysed by hesitation is perhaps the chief thing that philosophy, in our age, can do for those who study it.

Michael Greger

Oscar Wilde
Inflation is when you pay fifteen dollars for the ten-dollar haircut you used to get for five dollars when you had hair.
Sam Ewing
Losing both parents at a young age gave me a sense that you can’t really control life – so you’d better live it while it’s here. I stopped believing in a storybook existence a long time ago. All you can do is push in a direction and see what comes of it.
Jon Hamm
When a noble life has prepared for old age, it is not decline that it reveals, but the first days of immortality.
Madame de Stael

Reinhold Niebuhr
The great paradox of the 21st century is that, in this age of powerful technology, the biggest problems we face internationally are problems of the human soul.

The tendency of old age to the body, say the physiologists, is to form bone. It is as rare as it is pleasant to meet with an old man whose opinions are not ossified.

Shilpa Shetty
Every formula of every religion has in this age of reason, to submit to the acid test of reason and universal assent.
Mahatma Gandhi
Age is not measured by years. Nature does not equally distribute energy. Some people are born old and tired while others are going strong at seventy.
Dorothy Thompson
My dad encouraged us to fail. Growing up, he would ask us what we failed at that week. If we didn’t have something, he would be disappointed. It changed my mindset at an early age that failure is not the outcome, failure is not trying. Don’t be afraid to fail.
Sara Blakely
In age of consumerism and materialism, I traffic in blue sky and colored air.

Kate Bush
Age considers; youth ventures.
Rabindranath Tagore

Percy Julian
One hour of right-down love is worth an age of dully living on.

Walter Scott
Confusion of goals and perfection of means seems, in my opinion, to characterize our age.

In this enlightened age, there are few I believe, but what will acknowledge, that slavery as an institution is a moral & political evil in any country. It is useless to expatiate on its disadvantages.

It seems as if an age of genius must be succeeded by an age of endeavour; riot and extravagance by cleanliness and hard work.
Virginia Woolf
Although I sometimes enjoy writing from an adult’s perspective, I feel dedicated to the coming of age story – that part of a young person’s life where he must make a decision that will change his life forever. I still remember what it’s like to be twelve years old.
Kimberly Willis Holt
Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young.
Henry Ford
Age does not protect you from love. But love, to some extent, protects you from age.
Anais Nin
I called all adults by their first names, and my mum was just another adult. I was the firstborn of my generation in the family, but because I was so close to my parents in age, they treated me with a kind of adult respect. They talked to me as an equal.
Nile Rodgers
I really think we should pass a law in every state, I don’t care whether it takes the independence away from an old person or not. You shouldn’t be driving a car if you’re over the age of 80. Maybe even less than that.
Evel Knievel
This idea that being youthful is the only thing that’s beautiful or attractive simply isn’t true. I don’t want to be an ‘ageless beauty.’ I want to be a woman who is the best I can be at my age.
Sharon Stone
Age don’t count in the booth.
Rakim
It is not possible to live in this age if you don’t have a sense of many contradictory forces.

Vivienne Westwood
Man arrives as a novice at each age of his life.
Nicolas Chamfort
New needs need new techniques. And the modern artists have found new ways and new means of making their statements… the modern painter cannot express this age, the airplane, the atom bomb, the radio, in the old forms of the Renaissance or of any other past culture.
Jackson Pollock
I have to have my sunscreen. It’s so important for wrinkle reduction but also to protect you from the sun. Whatever skin type one might have, whatever age they’re at, I think sunscreen is key.
Sufe Bradshaw
The denunciation of the young is a necessary part of the hygiene of older people, and greatly assists the circulation of the blood.
Logan Pearsall Smith
I was acting since I was a kid, going to drama classes and being involved in every school play and musical that I could get my hands on, so it was something that was a part of me from a very early age.
Yvonne Strahovski
I think that age as a number is not nearly as important as health. You can be in poor health and be pretty miserable at 40 or 50. If you’re in good health, you can enjoy things into your 80s.
Bob Barker
If the nineteenth century was the age of the editorial chair, ours is the century of the psychiatrist’s couch.

Curtis LeMay
In youth we learn; in age we understand.

R. L. Stine
This might be the first generation where kids are dying at a younger age than their parents and it’s related primarily to the obesity problem.

Michael Oxley
I’m at the age now where just putting my cigar in its holder is a thrill.
George Burns
Nothing will see us through the age we’re entering but high consciousness, and that comes hard. We don’t have a good, modern myth yet, and we need one.
Robert Johnson
For me, love is endless, and love has no age limit.
Khalid
I believe there’s no reason why we couldn’t be entering a new age of musical theater if we continue to nurture young talent, take risks, and give them a playing field.
Carmen Cusack
People gossip. People are insecure, so they talk about other people so that they won’t be talked about. They point out flaws in other people to make them feel good about themselves. I think at any age or any social class, that’s present.
Blake Lively
In youth we run into difficulties. In old age difficulties run into us.
Josh Billings
A graceful and honorable old age is the childhood of immortality.
Pindar

George M. Church
Who would want a face that hasn’t seen or lived properly, hasn’t got any wrinkles that come with age, experience and laughter? Not me, anyway.
Cate Blanchett
I’ve loved musical theater ever since I was a kid. My mother’s a pianist, and my grandfather was an amateur theater director and stand-up comic. And I was an only child. And I loved attention. So from an early age, my family was teaching old musical songs.
Rachel Bloom
Every age has its happiness and troubles.
Jeanne Calment
Old age and the passage of time teach all things.

Ambrose Bierce
I often joke that 100 years from now I hope people are saying, ‘Dang, she looks good for her age!’

Your timeless self does not age and has no fear of the future. Contemplate your physical self and all its possessions, and practice laughing peacefully at it all.
Wayne Dyer
Age is just a number, and your talent will never fail you. It has no expiry date.
Madhuri Dixit
We’re in this incredible age where new brands are making people’s lives easier, more convenient, more personalized.
Aileen Lee
Old age isn’t so bad when you consider the alternative.
Maurice Chevalier
When marrying, ask yourself this question: Do you believe that you will be able to converse well with this person into your old age? Everything else in marriage is transitory.
Friedrich Nietzsche
From the age of 31, I have lived in hotels.
Omar Sharif
Age is just a number. Life and aging are the greatest gifts that we could possibly ever have.
Cicely Tyson
Gray hairs seem to my fancy like the soft light of the moon, silvering over the evening of life.
Jean Paul
The class distinctions proper to a democratic society are not those of rank or money, still less, as is apt to happen when these are abandoned, of race, but of age.
W. H. Auden
There are only three things that can kill a farmer: lightning, rolling over in a tractor, and old age.
Bill Bryson
Middle age is when your old classmates are so grey and wrinkled and bald they don’t recognize you.
Bennett Cerf
I got to experience soccer at the highest level at a young age; I decided I wanted to be part of that for as long as possible.
Mia Hamm
Football was always my dream. I started playing at the age of five, and I’m still playing now.
Sadio Mane
I am blessed to have got a chance to work with directors like Anurag Kashyap, Vishal Bhardwaj, and Nikhil Advani at such an early age.
Huma Qureshi
I still feel 29. Maybe I should act my age more, but I just can’t.
Ronnie Wood
Brain power improves by brain use, just as our bodily strength grows with exercise. And there is no doubt that a large proportion of the female population, from school days to late middle age, now have very complicated lives indeed.
A. N. Wilson
There is always some specific moment when we become aware that our youth is gone; but, years after, we know it was much later.
Mignon McLaughlin
If you’re old, don’t try to change yourself, change your environment.
B. F. Skinner
I met Will Smith twice. I didn’t talk to him for too long but I was trying to let him know that my age group grew up watching him – he was the coolest guy on television and the coolest guy in movies.
J. Cole
In this media-drenched, multitasking, always-on age, many of us have forgotten how to unplug and immerse ourselves completely in the moment. We have forgotten how to slow down. Not surprisingly, this fast-forward culture is taking a toll on everything from our diet and health to our work and the environment.
Carl Honore
My love for ice cream emerged at an early age – and has never left!
Ginger Rogers
We live in an age when the traditional great subjects – the human form, the landscape, even newer traditions such as abstract expressionism – are daily devalued by commercial art.
Andy Warhol
I truly believe that one of the reasons why I look and feel so well is because I’ve very few inhibitions. I don’t care about age. Life is too short to worry about what other people think.
Mamie Van Doren
Men do not fight for flag or country, for the Marine Corps or glory or any other abstraction. They fight for one another. And if you came through this ordeal, you would age with dignity.
William Manchester
When a noble life has prepared old age, it is not decline that it reveals, but the first days of immortality.
Muriel Spark
Middle age is youth without levity, and age without decay.
Doris Day
The greatest problem about old age is the fear that it may go on too long.
A. J. P. Taylor
It is possible that mankind is on the threshold of a golden age; but, if so, it will be necessary first to slay the dragon that guards the door, and this dragon is religion.
Bertrand Russell
Talk radio has made an enormous run around establishment media. But the Internet is making an end run around talk radio. Suddenly we’re faced with an information age.
Pete du Pont
With a Catholic mother and a Muslim father, I’ve always had a great interest in religion, but I’ve never practiced one myself. After I received a diagnosis of an aggressive form of leukemia at the age of 22, I put my faith in medicine.
Suleika Jaouad
As we grow older, our bodies get shorter and our anecdotes longer.
Robert Quillen
I’m the age now that Rock was when he picked me up, so I can understand how he felt – how his fame limited his freedom. You get kinder as you go along.
Armistead Maupin
I’m totally into new age and self-help books. I used to work in a bookstore and that’s the section they gave me, and I got way into it. I just loved the power of positive thinking, letting yourself go.
Jason Mraz
Twitter is the ultimate service for the mobile age – its simplification and constraint of the publishing medium to 140 characters is perfectly complementary to a mobile experience. People still need longer stuff, but they see the headline on Twitter or Facebook.
Matt Mullenweg
Memory in youth is active and easily impressible; in old age it is comparatively callous to new impressions, but still retains vividly those of earlier years.
Charlotte Bronte
The good writing of any age has always been the product of someone’s neurosis.
William Styron
We may think we live in a digital age. But there are some things technology will never replace.
Katie Hopkins
You can’t stop the aging process. There’s only so much oil you can put on your body. I’ve always just tried to go with my age. If the part requires somebody a little younger or older, I can probably get away with that.
Angie Dickinson
Not by age but by capacity is wisdom acquired.
Plautus
Being young isn’t about age, it’s about being a free spirit. You can meet someone of 20 who’s boring and old, or you can meet someone of 70 who’s youthful and exciting. I met Fred Astaire when he was 72 and I was 21, and I fell in love with him. He certainly was a free spirit.
Twiggy
The goal of my diet-style is eating for optimal health and longevity. What greater benefit could there be than living healthfully and actively into old age with no dependence on medications and almost no risk of heart disease, diabetes or dementia?
Joel Fuhrman
Old age is no place for sissies.
Bette Davis
My mother encouraged me to be artistic. It was written in a contract at an early age that I would be an artist.
Kurt Cobain
To separate children from others of similar age and qualifications solely because of their race generates a feeling of inferiority as to their status in the community that may affect their hearts and minds in a way unlikely ever to be undone.
Earl Warren
Old minds are like old horses; you must exercise them if you wish to keep them in working order.
John Adams
Robots will harvest, cook, and serve our food. They will work in our factories, drive our cars, and walk our dogs. Like it or not, the age of work is coming to an end.
Gray Scott
Age is whatever you think it is. You are as old as you think you are.
Muhammad Ali
Well, I’m in my 60s now. I finally look it, I think. People until I was 60 would always say they thought I looked younger, which I think, without flattering myself, I did, but I think I certainly have, as George Orwell says people do after a certain age, the face they deserve.
Christopher Hitchens
I think when the full horror of being fifty hits you, you should stay home and have a good cry.
Josh Billings
The philosophies of one age have become the absurdities of the next, and the foolishness of yesterday has become the wisdom of tomorrow.
William Osler
It is going to be difficult for the West Indies to get back to the top, but we got to start somewhere, and if playing young players is the way we have decided to go, these young players must be given the chance to mature and develop and not be discarded at an early age.
Fidel Edwards
Setting a good example for your children takes all the fun out of middle age.
William Feather
I was very fortunate to grow up with parents who love to travel, so I traveled from a young age. My dad’s a heart surgeon and goes to conferences all over the world. By the time I was seven, I traveled outside the country for the first time. We went to Paris. The next year, we went to London, and then Brussels.
Candice Accola
In this age of specialization, I sometimes think of myself as the last ‘generalist’ in economics, with interests that range from mathematical economics down to current financial journalism. My real interests are research and teaching.
Paul Samuelson
I don’t want to fight aging; I want to take good care of myself, but plastic surgery and all that? I’m not interested.
Christine Lahti
Here’s my Golden Rule for a tarnished age: Be fair with others, but keep after them until they’re fair with you.
Alan Alda
He has a profound respect for old age. Especially when it’s bottled.
Gene Fowler
The philosophies of one age have become the absurdities of the next, and the foolishness of yesterday has become the wisdom of tomorrow.
William Osler
The really frightening thing about middle age is the knowledge that you’ll grow out of it.
Doris Day
For the moment I prefer to be a beautiful woman of my age than try desperately to look 30.
Demi Moore
Whoever, fleeing marriage and the sorrows that women cause, does not wish to wed comes to a deadly old age.
Hesiod
When it comes to age, I just feel like puberty is, like, the most horrible time of anyone’s life.
Sam Smith
Youth is a blunder; Manhood a struggle, Old Age a regret.
Benjamin Disraeli
Old age is like a plane flying through a storm. Once you’re aboard, there’s nothing you can do.
Golda Meir
The human heart, at whatever age, opens only to the heart that opens in return.
Maria Edgeworth
When a man understands the art of seeing, he can trace the spirit of an age and the features of a king even in the knocker on a door.
Victor Hugo
The popular mythology of creative genius depends on beloved stereotypes of the artist in youth and old age: the misunderstood upstart who forces us to see the world afresh; and the revered sage who shows us depths of insight attainable only through a lifetime of hard-won experience.
Martin Filler
We tried not to age, but time had its rage.
Pete Townshend
Like many women my age, I am 28 years old.
Mary Schmich
I do comedy at a lot of colleges, and at the end of those shows, I take time to be a little more real with audiences. I try to inspire them to follow their dreams. When I was that age, it was incredible to hear stuff like that.
Fortune Feimster
Our movements and feelings are constantly monitored, because surveillance is the business model of the digital age.
Katharine Viner
Error is acceptable as long as we are young; but one must not drag it along into old age.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Knowing how to age and not being afraid of aging is very healthy.
Evelyn Lauder
Every age has a keyhole to which its eye is pasted.
Mary McCarthy
Age and size are only numbers. It’s the attitude you bring to clothes that make the difference.
Donna Karan
I’m much more open to being a supporting actor right now. At the age of 60, I’ll be second fiddle. Fine. I’m happy to do it.
Robin Williams
I am really surprised bitcoin isn’t more popular in India, given the strong gold culture here. I call it Gold 2.0. It has all the attributes other than the fact that it isn’t tangible, and tangibility is less important in the digital age.
Brock Pierce
We have been so successful in the past century at the art of living longer and staying alive that we have forgotten how to die. Too often we learn the hard way. As soon as the baby boomers pass pensionable age, their lesson will be harsher still.
Terry Pratchett
One of the many things nobody ever tells you about middle age is that it’s such a nice change from being young.
William Feather
I was competitive ping-pong player. I played in youth tournaments, under the age of 13.
Jimmy O. Yang
A bad manner spoils everything, even reason and justice; a good one supplies everything, gilds a No, sweetens a truth, and adds a touch of beauty to old age itself.
Baltasar Gracian
Old age is a special problem for me because I’ve never been able to shed the mental image I have of myself – a lad of about 19.
E. B. White
It is not the young people that degenerate; they are not spoiled till those of mature age are already sunk into corruption.
Montesquieu
Better pass boldly into that other world, in the full glory of some passion, than fade and wither dismally with age.
James Joyce
Every age has found some alternative to American values appealing. The number of Western intellectuals enamored of fascism and all the various expressions of Marxism was legion.
Dennis Prager
Youth is the spirit of adventure and awakening. It is a time of physical emerging when the body attains the vigor and good health that may ignore the caution of temperance. Youth is a period of timelessness when the horizons of age seem too distant to be noticed.
Ezra Taft Benson
The price of indulging yourself in your youth in the things you cannot afford is poverty and dependence in your old age.
Dorothy Dix
Age doesn’t mean anything. Age doesn’t mean I can’t work as hard. Age doesn’t mean I can’t do as well as everyone else. It’s just a factor. It’s just there.
Zendaya
To me, old age is always fifteen years older than I am.
Bernard Baruch
I think love can happen at any age… it has no age.
Shah Rukh Khan
The man Dickens, whom the world at large thought it knew, stood for all the Victorian virtues – probity, kindness, hard work, sympathy for the down-trodden, the sanctity of domestic life – even as his novels exposed the violence, hypocrisy, greed, and cruelty of the Victorian age.
Robert Gottlieb
Old age has got to start creeping up on me one day soon, and frankly I’m very scared. I don’t want to be old. I’ve always felt so young. And I want to stay that way.
David Niven
At 19, everything is possible and tomorrow looks friendly.
Jim Bishop
All of my friends are my age and we are all ageing at the same time. We talk about it and moan, but it doesn’t bother me.
Claudia Schiffer
We will not continue to be in the post-’79 era. That age is over.
Mohammad bin Salman
At age 11, I went to a Jewish school. I speak Yiddish. I’m Church of England Protestant. My father was Catholic, and my mother was Protestant. My wife is a Muslim.
Michael Caine
The first crocodile I ever caught was at nine years of age, and it was a rescue.
Steve Irwin
Middle age is when you’ve met so many people that every new person you meet reminds you of someone else.
Ogden Nash
Only in our failures are we absolutely alone. Only in the pursuit of failure can a person really be free. Losers may be the avant garde of the modern age.
Sheila Heti
I’m asked all the time in interviews about who I am, and I know a few people my age who have a strong sense of self, but I couldn’t say I know myself and sum it up and give it to you in a little package. I don’t know myself at all yet.
Kristen Stewart
Why should society feel responsible only for the education of children, and not for the education of all adults of every age?
Erich Fromm
Lack of education, old age, bad health or discrimination – these are causes of poverty, and the way to attack it is to go to the root.
Robert Kennedy
I knew at an early age I wanted to act. Acting was always easy for me. I don’t believe in predestination, but I do believe that once you get where ever it is you are going, that is where you were going to be.
Morgan Freeman
I’m living proof that there’s no age limit to rapping.
E-40
When I was 16, I got ‘Jamon, Jamon.’ Of course, I had to lie about my age. And I had to lie to my parents about the content of the script.
Penelope Cruz
It is old age, rather than death, that is to be contrasted with life. Old age is life’s parody, whereas death transforms life into a destiny: in a way it preserves it by giving it the absolute dimension. Death does away with time.
Simone de Beauvoir
Every age has its storytelling form, and video gaming is a huge part of our culture. You can ignore or embrace video games and imbue them with the best artistic quality. People are enthralled with video games in the same way as other people love the cinema or theatre.
Andy Serkis
There is no absurdity so palpable but that it may be firmly planted in the human head if you only begin to inculcate it before the age of five, by constantly repeating it with an air of great solemnity.
Arthur Schopenhauer
The most audacious thing I could possibly state in this day and age is that life is worth living. It’s worth being bashed against. It’s worth getting scarred by. It’s worth pouring yourself over every one of its coals.
Jeff Buckley
Swing voters are more appropriately known as the ‘idiot voters’ because they have no set of philosophical principles. By the age of fourteen, you’re either a Conservative or a Liberal if you have an IQ above a toaster.
Ann Coulter
Everything is so unstable in these times of progress at any cost, and social customs and methods of life alter so rapidly, that a few years now suffice to change completely the face of usages which, at their inception, bade fair to outlive the age – so enthusiastically were they welcomed by the public.
Auguste Escoffier
If you’re working 50 hours a week to try to maintain family income, and your children have the kinds of aspirations that come from being flooded with television from age one, and associations have declined, people end up hopeless, even though they have every option.
Noam Chomsky
Old age is the only thing that lives up to its reputation.
Emily Levine
Some men look at constitutions with sanctimonious reverence and deem them like the Ark of the Covenant, too sacred to be touched. They ascribe to men of the preceding age a wisdom more than human and suppose what they did to be beyond amendment.
Edmund Morgan
You feel a sense of urgency, especially at my advanced age, when you’re staring into the grave.
Frank McCourt
Old age is the verdict of life.
Amelia Barr
One of the many pleasures of old age is giving things up.
Malcolm Muggeridge
‘Age’ is the acceptance of a term of years. But maturity is the glory of years.
Martha Graham
Any young man who is unmarried at the age of twenty one is a menace to the community.
Brigham Young
During 1989, my mother, who was exceedingly good at finding these free programs – you know, we were on welfare, just trying to get through – but she would find these amazing programs. She sent me to the Soviet Union at the age of 12 to go study in the forest of then-Leningrad with 50 other Soviet kids.
Kehinde Wiley
I think we ought to raise the age at which juveniles can have a gun.
George W. Bush
Advice in old age is foolish; for what can be more absurd than to increase our provisions for the road the nearer we approach to our journey’s end.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
I definitely try not to get too caught up in putting too much of a gender or age assessment on everything – I’ve just got to get on with it.
Jacinda Ardern
Old age is a shipwreck.
Charles de Gaulle
Old age has its pleasures, which, though different, are not less than the pleasures of youth.
W. Somerset Maugham
Everyone in our clique rocks a black bandana with the print ‘EST 19XX’ on them 24/7. As the underdog, you are expected to lose or give up and ‘wave the white towel,’ so that is why our flag is black. We never give up – never surrender. EST means ‘Everyone Stands Together.’ The ’19XX’ is to represent any age.
Machine Gun Kelly
Minds ripen at very different ages.
Stevie Wonder
My brother Joseph, who is 14 years older than me, was already on his national military compulsory service when I was 4 years old, the age from which I remember myself.
Aaron Ciechanover
Oh, if I had been loved at the age of seventeen, what an idiot I would be today. Happiness is like smallpox: if you catch it too soon, it can completely ruin your constitution.
Gustave Flaubert
After you’re older, two things are possibly more important than any others: health and money.
Helen Gurley Brown
Old age is the most unexpected of all the things that can happen to a man.
James Thurber
Each age tries to form its own conception of the past. Each age writes the history of the past anew with reference to the conditions uppermost in its own time.
Frederick Jackson Turner
One of the things you learn in football is that you’re only as good as your last outing. I don’t like to reflect on what we’ve done in the past. I’m not a very good storyteller, for one thing. I’d disappoint you. When it’s time, I’ll talk about the good old days. But it’s a sign of old age, reveling in the past.
Chuck Noll
Age does not matter if the matter does not age.
Jean Paul
I was baptized as an infant. I was confirmed as an adolescent; I was active in my church’s youth group and in my university student group. I was married before the church’s altar; trained at the church’s seminaries, ordained deacon and priest at age 24.
John Shelby Spong
Youth is wasted on the young.
George Bernard Shaw
It is a blessed thing that in every age some one has had the individuality enough and courage enough to stand by his own convictions.
Robert Green Ingersoll
Once you get to a certain age, if you have resentment towards people, it only affects you.
Slowthai
Everyone must accept that we will age and age is not always flattering.
Amitabh Bachchan
A man does not die of love or his liver or even of old age; he dies of being a man.
Miguel de Unamuno
The secret of genius is to carry the spirit of the child into old age, which means never losing your enthusiasm.
Aldous Huxley
Exposure from a young age to the realities of the world is a super-big thing.
Bill Gates
Old age is just a record of one’s whole life.
Muhammad Ali
What most persons consider as virtue, after the age of 40 is simply a loss of energy.
Voltaire
In today’s world, having money has allowed people who are extremely uncool to think that they’re cool and carry it like that. People who really are cool and people who really are artists and have ideas have to literally turn in their cool card to society just to make it past the age of 28.
Kanye West
Admiration of the proletariat, like that of dams, power stations, and aeroplanes, is part of the ideology of the machine age.
Bertrand Russell
The stars shall fade away, the sun himself Grow dim with age, and nature sink in years, But thou shalt flourish in immortal youth, Unhurt amidst the wars of elements, The wrecks of matter, and the crush of worlds.
Joseph Addison
One of the nice things about getting older is that you come to understand that you can integrate multiple aspects of your life together. When you’re young, you think everything has to be binary, as that’s exactly how you feel at that age.
Min Jin Lee
It’s not catastrophes, murders, deaths, diseases, that age and kill us; it’s the way people look and laugh, and run up the steps of omnibuses.
Virginia Woolf
We live in an age, in an era where there is so much negativity, there is so much violence in the world, there is so much unrest and people are at war, that I wanted to promote the word love and red signifies love.
Elton John
What Youth deemed crystal, Age finds out was dew.
Robert Browning
You know you’re getting old when all the names in your black book have M. D. after them.
Harrison Ford
Sure I played, did you think I was born at the age of 70 sitting in a dugout trying to manage guys like you?
Casey Stengel
Anything you cannot relinquish when it has outlived its usefulness possesses you, and in this materialistic age a great many of us are possessed by our possessions.
Peace Pilgrim
The three ages of man: youth, middle age and ‘my word you do look well’.
June Whitfield
Information is the oxygen of the modern age. It seeps through the walls topped by barbed wire, it wafts across the electrified borders.
Ronald Reagan
People quit on jobs. They quit on marriages. They quit on school. There’s an immediacy of this day and age that doesn’t lend itself to being committed to anything.
Emily Blunt
There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age.
Sophia Loren
I decided I wanted to be a lawyer when I was 11 years of age.
Johnnie Cochran
It doesn’t surprise me that men in their twenties and thirties are often looking for a much older woman. What is the problem with a man of 30 being with a woman of 50? It is a matter of energy and the soul, not a matter of age of the body.
Monica Bellucci
I think it’s nice to age gracefully. OK, you lose the youth, a certain stamina and dewy glow, but what you gain on the inside as a human being is wonderful: the wisdom, the acceptance and the peace of mind. It’s a fair exchange.
Cherie Lunghi
Of middle age the best that can be said is that a middle-aged person has likely learned how to have a little fun in spite of his troubles.
Don Marquis
Living in an age of advertisement, we are perpetually disillusioned. The perfect life is spread before us every day, but it changes and withers at a touch.
J. B. Priestley
Nobody grows old merely by living a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.
Samuel Ullman
Age, they say, is only important if you’re cheese. or a wine. They also say, if you are stuck behind one on a golf course, that a tree is 90 per cent air. How come, then, that you invariably send your ball crashing into the remaining 10 per cent?
Terry Wogan
He who is of calm and happy nature will hardly feel the pressure of age, but to him who is of an opposite disposition youth and age are equally a burden.
Plato
I have a fear of poverty in old age. I have this vision of myself living in a skip and eating cat food. It’s because I’m freelance, and I’ve never had a proper job. I don’t have a pension, and my savings are dwindling. I always thought someone would just come along and look after me.
Jenny Eclair
I think that age as a number is not nearly as important as health. You can be in poor health and be pretty miserable at 40 or 50. If you’re in good health, you can enjoy things into your 80s.
Bob Barker
If you play ‘Fortnite’ and you’re over the age of 13 years old, you’ve got a psychological problem. There’s something wrong with you.
Dr. Disrespect
Everybody is playing games. There are games now for pretty much every age, every demographic.
Jesse Schell
I don’t think you should celebrate age.
Dennis Skinner
I learned at a very early age, the easiest thing in the world is to tell the truth, and then you don’t have to remember what you said. It has nothing to do with morality, just remembering what you said.
Robert Evans
Well, we all age, but I’d been taking herbal supplements for a long time.
Frankie Avalon
As I approve of a youth that has something of the old man in him, so I am no less pleased with an old man that has something of the youth. He that follows this rule may be old in body, but can never be so in mind.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
A woman telling her true age is like a buyer confiding his final price to an Armenian rug dealer.
Mignon McLaughlin
The truth is that the history of the last couple of thousand years has been broadly repeated attempts by various people or institutions – in a Freudian way – to rediscover the lost childhood of Europe, this golden age of peace and prosperity under the Romans, by trying to unify it.
Boris Johnson
I think this is how life is. It’s not a linear march through time; you revolve around the same old things as you age and acquire experiences.
Miranda July
No matter what your age is, you only have now. So it’s always about living in the moment and being in the moment… I refuse to let those numbers define me, and I just try to face each day positively.
Christie Brinkley
I conclude, therefore, that this star is not some kind of comet or a fiery meteor… but that it is a star shining in the firmament itself one that has never previously been seen before our time, in any age since the beginning of the world.
Tycho Brahe
Never guess a woman’s age. Never guess a woman’s weight. Never even talk about weight in front of a woman. And never, ever ask a woman when she’s due.
Lyle Lovett
What though youth gave love and roses, Age still leaves us friends and wine.
Thomas Moore
When you get to my age life seems little more than one long march to and from the lavatory.
A. C. Benson
I started taking piano lessons from the age of six years old. It’s such an essential part of what I do in the production process. I wouldn’t be Kygo today without those piano lessons.
Kygo
Universities are the cathedrals of the modern age. They shouldn’t have to justify their existence by utilitarian criteria.
David Lodge
Just remember, once you’re over the hill you begin to pick up speed.
Arthur Schopenhauer
I think the biggest disease the world suffers from in this day and age is the disease of people feeling unloved. I know that I can give love for a minute, for half an hour, for a day, for a month, but I can give. I am very happy to do that, I want to do that.
Princess Diana
I only published my first novel at the age of 40. Till then, I wrote short stories.
A. B. Yehoshua
Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen.
Albert Einstein
The age of innocent faith in science and technology may be over.
Barry Commoner
It’s really hard coming of age in today’s society, where society wants you to make the decision of what you want to do with your life by the time you’re 16 years old. Most kids don’t know what they want to do. How could they? They haven’t lived in the real world yet.
Rooney Mara
I would also like to thank my father who discouraged me from playing the violin at an early age.
Paul Desmond
Information is the oxygen of the modern age. It seeps through the walls topped by barbed wire, it wafts across the electrified borders.
Ronald Reagan
Be eccentric now. Don’t wait for old age to wear purple.
Regina Brett
When you get to your mid-20s, you start to feel responsibilities for the things that you do and the people around you. It’s a cool age.
Eliza Dushku
Aging is not lost youth but a new stage of opportunity and strength.
Betty Friedan
I’ve been dancing since the age of two. I don’t really remember it, because I was little, but my mom signed me up and would put me in cute costumes. A lot of little girls get into dancing, but I loved it so much that I kept doing it.
Maddie Ziegler
A diplomat is a man who always remembers a woman’s birthday but never remembers her age.
Robert Frost
Middle age is the awkward period when Father Time starts catching up with Mother Nature.
Harold Coffin
I grew up going to a school where there weren’t a lot of black kids. And so my mother, from a very, very young age, has sensitized me to race.
Mellody Hobson
I love high heels from the age of 10! Short skirts and then high heels. My classmates used to make fun of me. Like, ‘Ooh, she’s so skinny and she’s wearing high heels.’ But I just wore what I like, and I didn’t care about people’s opinions, the same as I don’t care now.
Irina Shayk
At the age of 18, I made up my mind to never have another bad day in my life. I dove into a endless sea of gratitude from which I’ve never emerged.
Patch Adams
Old age is an excellent time for outrage. My goal is to say or do at least one outrageous thing every week.
Louis Kronenberger
Joe Biden was first elected to the Senate in 1972 at age 30. Somewhere around 1992, he should have had to go out and get a real job.
Howie Carr
Youth has no age.
Pablo Picasso
In a machine age, dressmaking is one of the last refuges of the human, the personal, the inimitable.
Christian Dior
