3 December 2020 Anna Kendrick I started auditioning when I was about 10 and I didn’t get my first job until I was 12, and two years at that age is really hard.
3 December 2020 Joseph Addison It is folly for an eminent man to think of escaping censure, and a weakness to be affected with it. All the illustrious persons of antiquity, and indeed of every age in the world, have passed through this fiery persecution.

3 December 2020 Ambrose Bierce Childhood: the period of human life intermediate between the idiocy of infancy and the folly of youth – two removes from the sin of manhood and three from the remorse of age.
3 December 2020 Demi Moore Despite what anti-aging ads say, growing older can be better. I feel better in my skin, 100 percent. You have greater effects of gravity, but the better sense of yourself you have is something I wouldn’t trade. Women who lie about their age – ‘why?’
3 December 2020 Hannah Arendt To be free in an age like ours, one must be in a position of authority. That in itself would be enough to make me ambitious.
3 December 2020 W. Somerset Maugham Old age is ready to undertake tasks that youth shirked because they would take too long.

3 December 2020 Andre Maurois An artist must be a reactionary. He has to stand out against the tenor of the age and not go flopping along.

3 December 2020 Charles Caleb Colton The excess of our youth are checks written against our age and they are payable with interest thirty years later.

3 December 2020 Steven Morrissey Age gives you a great sense of proportion. You can be very hard on yourself when you’re younger but now I just think ‘well everybody’s absolutely mad and I’m doing quite well’.
