3 December 2020 Don Marquis 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.
3 December 2020 Bear Grylls I never wanted to do TV. I just did what I was trained to do through the Special Forces, and I’ve been doing that from a very young age.
3 December 2020 Jane Fonda We’re still living with the old paradigm of age as an arch. That’s the old metaphor: You’re born, you peak at midlife and decline into decrepitude.
3 December 2020 Harold Coffin Middle age is the awkward period when Father Time starts catching up with Mother Nature.
3 December 2020 Annie Dillard It’s a little silly to finally learn how to write at this age. But I long ago realized I was secretly sincere.
3 December 2020 Rod Stewart I’ve never been more in love with anyone nearly half my age than I am today. I’d get married in a minute if I weren’t still married to somebody else.
3 December 2020 Ron Perlman The great thing about arriving at this age is that I don’t even care about my career anymore.
3 December 2020 Bob Geldof I’d always thought the Rats were good fun, but one of the very nice things about being of Saga age is that I can actually look back and think, When I was younger I was in a great band. It was always a collective thing.
3 December 2020 Tim McGraw I think you have to be a little bit strict. You can’t be friend and their parent in a lot of situations, especially in this day and age where it’s so dangerous for kids. So there’s a bit of sternness, I guess, in the way I raise my kids.

3 December 2020 John Legend Anybody under the age of forty knows hip-hop, gospel and R&B pretty well, and it’s all a part of what we consider to be ‘black music.’ There is a natural synergy between the three.
