AGE QUOTES (33)
To
be told that one can be dependent on one's parents until age 26 should strike a
young person who wants to grow up as demeaning, not as something to celebrate.
~Dennis
Prager
Everybody
looks like clones and the only people you notice are my age. I don't notice
anybody unless they look great, and every now and again they do, and they are
usually 70.
~Vivienne
Westwood
The
divine right of husbands, like the divine right of kings, may, it is hoped, in
this enlightened age, be contested without danger.
~Mary
Wollstonecraft
In
every age there has been a stream of popular opinion that has carried all
before it, and given a family character, as it were, to the century.
~Mary
Wollstonecraft
There
are only three things that can kill a farmer: lightning, rolling over in a
tractor, and old age.
~Bill
Bryson
Old
age isn't so bad when you consider the alternative.
~Maurice
Chevalier
I
came to water late. I learned to swim at the age of 20.
~Liam
Neeson
Let
age, not envy, draw wrinkles on thy cheeks.
~Thomas
Browne
Every
age yearns for a more beautiful world. The deeper the desperation and the
depression about the confusing present, the more intense that yearning.
~Johan
Huizinga
America
doesn't reward people of my age, either in day-to-day life or for their
performances.
~Meryl
Streep
Age
is no barrier. It's a limitation you put on your mind.
~Jackie
Joyner-Kersee
People
are so busy dreaming the American Dream, fantasizing about what they could be
or have a right to be, that they're all asleep at the switch. Consequently we
are living in the Age of Human Error.
~Florence
King
I
remember at the age of five travelling on a trolley car with my mother past a
group of women on a picket line at a textile plant, seeing them being viciously
beaten by security people. So that kind of thing stayed with me.
~Noam
Chomsky
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.
~Vivienne
Westwood
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
An
age which is incapable of poetry is incapable of any kind of literature except
the cleverness of a decadence.
~Raymond
Chandler
I
learned from a very young age that if I pursued the things that truly excited me,
that they would reward in more important ways, like happiness.
~Brandon
Boyd
I
believe the true function of age is memory. I'm recording as fast as I can.
~Rita
Mae Brown
With
the song 'This Christmas' I wanted to do something that was kind of different.
I mean, Donny Hathaway is an amazing artist. So I wanted to bring my flavor to
the song so when people over the age of 45 or 50 hear it they'll be like 'OK,
he did his thing with that record.' It's like I can appeal to everybody and not
just a younger demographic.
~Chris
Brown
Look,
demanding somebody do anything in this day and age is not going to fly.
~John
Mayer
I
was very successful from a very early age, and I want to keep it.
~John
Mayer
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
It's
ironic that at age 32, at probably the greatest moment of my career, with The
Godfather having such an enormous success, I wasn't even aware of it, because I
was somewhere else under the deadline again.
~Francis
Ford Coppola
One
of the great challenges of our age, in which the tools of our productivity are
also the tools of our leisure, is to figure out how to make more useful those
moments of procrastination when we're idling in front of our computer screens.
~Joshua
Foer
I
think it's pretty crazy to say you've been typecast at the age of 20 before
you've even really started getting going.
~Tom
Felton
Reason
is a crutch for age, but youth is strong enough to walk alone.
~John
Dryden
My
best friend just had a baby, and she's my age. So I'm a godmom now, which is
crazy.
~Kristen
Stewart
I
basically get stereotyped a lot in terms of being a girl and writing 'chick'
music for teenage girls or something. I think, if anything, the press kind of,
because of my gender and my age, tends to kind of relegate my work to this sort
of special-interest group. It's part of the cultural dynamic, I guess.
~Ani
DiFranco
Your
body actually reminds you about your age and your injuries - the body has a
stronger memory than your mind.
~Mikhail
Baryshnikov
This
is my 20th year in the sport. I've known swimming and that's it. I don't want
to swim past age 30; if I continue after this Olympics, and come back in 2016,
I'll be 31. I'm looking forward to being able to see the other side of the
fence.
~Michael
Phelps
A
sense of freedom is something that, happily, comes with age and life
experience.
