Rob McElhenney Quotes

Being eye candy always was a short-term career, and here's the reason. The world finds young women more attractive than old women because youthfulness signals fertility.

Beauty fades! I just turned 29, so I probably don't have that many good years left in me.

A woman is as old as she looks before breakfast.

Now, I don't actually know the exact cut-off age where beautiful ceases and 'must have-once-been-beautiful' begins. It's true it's not forty-five. I can still get attention when I try really hard, even if it's greatly reduced.

Female beauties are as fickle in their faces as in their minds; though casualties should spare them, age brings in a necessity of decay.

Therefore was I created with a stubborn outside, with an aspect of iron, that when I come to woo ladies, I fright them. But, in faith, Kate, the elder I wax, the better I shall appear. My comfort is that old age, that ill layer-up of beauty, can do no more spoil upon my face. Thou hast me, if thou hast me, at the worst, and thou shalt wear me, if thou wear me, better and better.

It is worth nothing to be young without being beautiful, nor to be beautiful without being young.

Age for me is just a number.

I'll declare my own interest right here at the start and admit that, like the vast majority of people, I find youthful looks appealing.

Beauty lasts five minutes. Maybe longer if you have a good plastic surgeon.

For most of my 20s, I looked like I was 12. Now that I'm pushing 40, I guess I look closer to... 15? It must be my macrobiotic diet. Oh, wait, except that I don't have one of those.

I have the sort of round face that you complain about when you're younger, but which serves you well as you get older.

Why are people afraid of getting older? You feel wiser. You feel more mature. You feel like you know yourself better. You would trade that for softer skin? Not me!

Maybe this whole obsession about colouring our hair is about our inability to grow up. To let go of the fact we aren't children any more, and the whole thing about changing our faces and looking young, and 60 being the new 40, is maybe we don't want to let go of our childhood.

That whole sex symbol thing I never took seriously to begin with. Thank goodness, or I'd be suffering right now because it's out of your hands what happens to you with age.

They called me the sexiest economist in America, and that was years ago, when I had hair and body mass and my teeth were shiny.

In the beginning of my career, I read an article about the reason that men always look five years younger than women is because they shave.

I wonder if it is harder for a woman who was beautiful to get older or a woman who was never looked at.

I'm partly obsessed by aging gracefully.

I'm not getting any younger. You're not getting any younger, so yeah. You age.

It sometimes happens that a woman is handsomer at twenty-nine than she was ten years before.

Aging on camera is just very hard. I love my age. I feel good about myself but high definition television is not kind. You don't even look like yourself in high-def. It just makes every little line on your face more exaggerated so it ends up aging you. It's like you're watching yourself seven years older.

The bad part about growing older is I'm going bald. The good part is my nose seems to be getting shorter.

I don't like getting older, but there's nothing I can do. Hitting 60 wasn't great, but I think I was lucky in not being that beautiful; it can be really cruel on people who have been stunning.

We all get old, but I always say the skinny, pretty girls will be screwed.
