My justification is that most people my age spend a lot of time thinking about what they're going to do for the next five or ten years. The time they spend thinking about their life I just spend drinking.
There are people whose watch stops at a certain hour and who remain permanently at that age.
Middle age is when you've met so many people that every new person you meet reminds you of someone else.
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.
It seems that when you get to a certain age you almost give yourself permission to misbehave and say what you think. People allow it with very old people.
With age you see people fail more. You see yourself fail more. How do you keep that fearlessness of a kid? You keep going. Luckily I'm not afraid to make a fool of myself.
We're saying no changes for Medicare for people above the age of 55. And in order to keep the promise to current seniors who've already retired and organized their lives around this program you have to reform it for the next generation.
I'm inspired by people who keep on rolling no matter their age.
English people don't have very good diction. In France you have to pronounce very particularly and clearly and learning French at an early age helped me enormously.
Well I'm in my 60s now. I finally look it I think. People until I was 60 would always say they thought I looked younger which I think without flattering myself I did but I think I certainly have as George Orwell says people do after a certain age the face they deserve.
The people who live in a golden age usually go around complaining how yellow everything looks.
A major advantage of age is learning to accept people without passing judgment.
Today more than ever we need creative minds to address the issues of the age. And one of the most urgent is this: How can humanity know so much achieve so much and still fail so many people so badly?
Interest is the spur of the people but glory that of great souls. Invention is the talent of youth and judgment of age.
Why do people talk of the horrors of old age? It's great. I feel like a fine old car with the parts gradually wearing out but I'm not complaining ... Those who find growing old terrible are people who haven't done what they wanted with their lives.
People until I was 60 would always say they thought I looked younger which I think without flattering myself I did but I think I certainly have as George Orwell says people do after a certain age the face they deserve.
The nearer people approach old age the closer they return to a semblance of childhood until the time comes for them to depart this life again like children neither tired of living nor aware of death.
