Old age is always wakeful as if, the longer linked with life, the less man has to do with aught that looks like death. Herman Melville on age
What I think is amazing is not that 85% of people who get married under the age of 25 get divorced, it's that 15% of them stay together. How did they manage to pull that off? You almost can't wait too long. It's the single simplest measure to predict divorce. Elizabeth Gilbert on age
I avoid talking before the youth of the age as I would dancing before them: for if one's tongue don't move in the steps of the day, and thinks to please by its old graces, it is only an object of ridicule. Horace Walpole on age
I'm glad I was born when I was. My time was the golden age of variety. If I were starting out again now, maybe things would happen for me, but it certainly would not be on a variety show with 28 musicians, 12 dancers, two major guest stars, 50 costumes a week by Bob Mackie. The networks just wouldn't spend the money today. Carol Burnett on age
I was taught from a young age that many people would treat me as a second-class citizen because I was African-American and because I was female. Queen Latifah on age
Even from a very early age, I knew I didn't want to miss out on anything life had to offer just because it might be considered dangerous. Nicole Kidman on age

The Word of fire burns today On the lips of our prophets in an evil age. Margaret Walker on age
What is wrong with the Iranians in addition to the nuclear bomb? This is the only country on Earth in the 21st century that has renewed imperialistic ambitions. They really want to become the hegemon of the Middle East in an age that gave up imperialism. Shimon Peres on age
I think it's quite extraordinary that people cast me as if I'm Warren Beatty: until I met my present wife, at the age of 35, you could name two girlfriends. Colin Firth on age
Craziest thing I've done for love is getting married. I think it's crazy. I think it's crazy, crazy, crazy. I'm never going to say I wouldn't do it again but I have to make sure it's love and not settling for the 'I have to do this by a certain age,' which is kind of what I did. Jenny McCarthy on age
You never choose the way that you're raised, it's just the way that you were raised, but you do get to a certain age where you're in a position to question the expectations of you and the way that you've been formed by your surroundings. Mia Wasikowska on age
We tried not to age, but time had its rage. Pete Townshend on age
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 on age
Young man, the secret of my success is that an early age I discovered that I was not God. Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. on age
I'd like to talk about free markets. Information in the computer age is the last genuine free market left on earth except those free markets where indigenous people are still surviving. And that's basically becoming limited. Russell Means on age
I would often find myself, at the age of 21, at midnight, running down a dark street on my own with 10 men chasing me. And the fact they had cameras in their hands made that legal. Sienna Miller on age
Bring a wife home to your house when you are of the right age, not far short of 30 years, nor much above this is the right time for marriage. Hesiod on age
