3 December 2020 Salvador Dali At the age of six I wanted to be a cook. At seven I wanted to be Napoleon. And my ambition has been growing steadily ever since.
3 December 2020 Kathleen Turner A woman my age is not supposed to be attractive or sexually appealing. I just get kinda tired of that.
3 December 2020 Pearl S. Buck We should so provide for old age that it may have no urgent wants of this world to absorb it from meditation on the next. It is awful to see the lean hands of dotage making a coffer of the grave.
3 December 2020 Iain Duncan Smith My view is pensioners don’t have the one option that people of working age have. They can’t really increase their income, because they are no longer able to work.
3 December 2020 Vin Diesel With age, you get to a place where you don’t want to knock people out. You just want to give people a hug.
3 December 2020 Gilbert K. Chesterton Once I planned to write a book of poems entirely about the things in my pocket. But I found it would be too long and the age of the great epics is past.
3 December 2020 Avril Lavigne I created Punk for this day and age. Do you see Britney walking around wearing ties and singing punk? Hell no. That’s what I do. I’m like a Sid Vicious for a new generation.
3 December 2020 Magic Johnson I wanted to do two things when I was growing up, about your age. I wanted to play in the NBA, and I wanted to be a businessman after my basketball career was over, and that is what I am doing now.
3 December 2020 John Mellencamp I want to sell to people my own age, because that’s the way I write songs.
3 December 2020 Pearl S. Buck You can judge your age by the amount of pain you feel when you come in contact with a new idea.
3 December 2020 Vivienne Westwood The age in which we live, this non-stop distraction, is making it more impossible for the young generation to ever have the curiosity or discipline… because you need to be alone to find out anything.
3 December 2020 Wayne Gretzky I knew at a young age, whether I was playing baseball or hockey or lacrosse, that my teammates were counting on me, whether it be to strike the last batter out in a baseball game or score a big goal in a hockey game.
3 December 2020 Pope Paul VI In youth the days are short and the years are long. In old age the years are short and day’s long.
3 December 2020 Kevin Spacey If you haven’t turned rebel by twenty you’ve got no heart if you haven’t turned establishment by thirty you’ve got no brains!
3 December 2020 Tom Stoppard From as long as, literally as far back as I can remember I’ve liked puns, word jokes, I can literally recall looking at a comic at the age of six or seven and I remember what I enjoyed and what it was precisely and how the joke worked.
3 December 2020 John Stamos I also find it interesting that a lot of people in their 30s are not married and don’t have kids. There are a lot of people in this age bracket that are out there dating and trying to find love. And I never thought that at my age I would be.
3 December 2020 Sting I want to get old gracefully. I want to have good posture, I want to be healthy and be an example to my children.
3 December 2020 Edmund Burke But the age of chivalry is gone. That of sophisters, economists, and calculators has succeeded and the glory of Europe is extinguished forever.
3 December 2020 Samantha Morton I have worked very hard on being aware of my childhood but moving forward and not letting it bring me down emotionally. That is a hard thing – especially when you have children of your own and you remember what happened to you at that age.
3 December 2020 Bob Wells 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.
3 December 2020 Daniel Craig The idea of regretting not doing this seemed insane to me. Sitting in the corner at a bar at age 60, saying: ‘I could’ve been Bond. Buy me a drink.’ That’s the saddest place I could be. At least now at 60 I can say: ‘I was Bond. Now buy me a drink.’
3 December 2020 W. Somerset Maugham Old age has its pleasures, which, though different, are not less than the pleasures of youth.
3 December 2020 Oscar Wilde No woman should ever be quite accurate about her age. It looks so calculating.
3 December 2020 Juliette Binoche But I think it’s a little different in Europe, because 40 is really the best age for a woman. That’s when we hit our peak and become this ripe fruit.
3 December 2020 Charles Kingsley Some say that the age of chivalry is past, that the spirit of romance is dead. The age of chivalry is never past, so long as there is a wrong left unredressed on earth.
3 December 2020 Jennifer Aniston You know what makes me feel old? When I see girls who are 20-something, or the new crop of actresses, and think, Aren’t we kind of the same age?
