I'm afraid to look in the mirror. I'm afraid I'm going to see an old lady with white hair, just like the old ladies in the park. Alittle bundle in a black shawl just waiting for the coffin.
There's an 'Everything must go!' emotional liquidation feel to the end of your twenties, isn't there? What will happen if we turn thirty and we're not 'ready?' You don't feel entirely settled in any aspect of your life, even if you are on paper.
I've been having a midlife crisis since I was four years old.
It was almost normal for people over thirty to be frightened of their own children
I'm 16, and I'm still self-conscious. Everyone is at this age.
Havin lunch and debatin Ferrari prices. 23 and goin through a midlife crisis.
I found a lot of guys my age and older were absolutely terrified of me. Younger men weren't.
I may be developing aerophobia as I get older, or maybe I'm just becoming middle aged, because I find flying an increasingly unpleasant way of travelling. I would much rather drive than fly.
At 30 I was not quiet enough inside myself. At 40 I was not rich enough. At 50 I was still hoping to change the world.
Inside I feel much like a 12-year-old or a 17-year-old who knows big words.
I say personally because I am 84 years old, and [Barack Obama's] is the first administration that has scared me in terms of my lifespan.
A new study shows that having a severe phobia can hasten aging. But what if my greatest fear IS aging?!?
In this country, some people start being miserable about growing old while they are still young.
Fear comes with middle age.
So scared of getting older I'm only good at being young So I play the numbers game to find a way to say that life has just begun.
It's that I'm 39. I feel hot and sexy, actually... I feel it inside myself. I don't feel dried up and tired and no longer interested in sex is what I'm trying to say.
It seems that when anything aimed at kids catches on, it causes the collective antennae of the older set to go up.
When you get older, you start to doubt, and you put limitations on yourself. But little Teyonah had no fear.
I'd hit thirty, I'd sort of failed as a musician, I'd failed as an artist I felt at the time.
