3 December 2020 David Brinkley This is the first convention of the space age – where a candidate can promise the moon and mean it.
3 December 2020 Theodore Bikel Having come to live in this age is as though one were to have entered another country. Learn its language or risk being left out.
3 December 2020 Eleanor Roosevelt Old age has deformities enough of its own. It should never add to them the deformity of vice.
3 December 2020 Joan Jett I figured out it was a social thing, what women were allowed to do. At a very young age, I decided I was not going to follow women’s rules.
3 December 2020 Tom Hanks The year I was born, 1956, was the peak year for babies being born, and there are more people essentially our age than anybody else. We could crush these new generations if we decided too.
3 December 2020 Wim Wenders The culture of independent film criticism has totally gone down the drain and this seems to come with the territory of the consumer age that we are now living in.
3 December 2020 Plato 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.
3 December 2020 Morgan Freeman 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.
3 December 2020 Don Marquis Middle age is the time when a man is always thinking that in a week or two he will feel as good as ever.
3 December 2020 Margaret Atwood Another belief of mine that everyone else my age is an adult, whereas I am merely in disguise.
3 December 2020 Lucinda Williams Back in the 1960s, I saw Peter, Paul and Mary. I was at that age, about 14, and I was mesmerized.
3 December 2020 Cindy Crawford The face you have at age 25 is the face God gave you, but the face you have after 50 is the face you earned.
3 December 2020 Saul Williams I am hoping for peaceful transition into a new age. Obama has already played a great role in initiating us into that vision. If he were to be harmed in any way, it would spawn the birth of a million Obamas.
3 December 2020 Benjamin Franklin At twenty years of age the will reigns at thirty, the wit and at forty, the judgment.

3 December 2020 Mary Wollstonecraft The divine right of husbands, like the divine right of kings, may, it is hoped, in this enlightened age, be contested without danger.
3 December 2020 Katharine Hepburn Dressing up is a bore. At a certain age, you decorate yourself to attract the opposite sex, and at a certain age, I did that. But I’m past that age.
3 December 2020 Meryl Streep America doesn’t reward people of my age, either in day-to-day life or for their performances.

3 December 2020 Billy Joel In an age of incompetence, I’ve been able to last in this crazy business. I actually know how to play my ax and write a song. That’s my job.
3 December 2020 Lord Byron What is the worst of woes that wait on age? What stamps the wrinkle deeper on the brow? To view each loved one blotted from life’s page, And be alone on earth, as I am now.
3 December 2020 Noel Coward I have always paid income tax. I object only when it reaches a stage when I am threatened with having nothing left for my old age – which is due to start next Tuesday or Wednesday.
3 December 2020 David Duchovny In this age of media and Internet access, we are much more talkative than ever before.
3 December 2020 William Feather One of the many things nobody ever tells you about middle age is that it’s such a nice change from being young.
3 December 2020 Kristen Stewart 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.
