I think 30 is a big jump from your 20s, but 40 holds no fear for me.
I turned 30 as a janitor. I was thinking at the time that Hank Williams died when he was 29. All my peers were at least 10 years younger than I was. I felt like an old has-been at the time.
I'm 30. I'm not that young, right? I'm not, like, 24 or 22. I'm no longer in the phase of my life where I talk about everything as in the future. Like, I'm in the future.
At Rain Man, I was 38. And before that, I had really just started working when I was 36. I was very late. So I've got time, right? As long as I stay healthy and eat right.
I will never be an old man. To me, old age is always 15 years older than I am.
I've never worried about age.
I didn't want to be 50 or 60 and auditioning for a three-line role.
I remember when I made my first album, I was 32 or 33 years old and I thought I was way too old then.
At fifty. I thought I would be done. I thought I'd be finished by now. So I have no idea. I just leave it.
When I was into my 30s, I became increasingly depressed by rejection letters. I had had the feeling that by the time I was 30, I would be established. But I was not at all. By the time of 'Lives of Girls and Women,' I was into my 40s and I had become more thin-skinned.
To me, old age is always fifteen years older than I am.
I had my mid-life crisis at 29. I've got my thirties and forties into the back end of my twenties.
Unfortunately, my age on Tinder says 28, and we all know I'm not that, but I don't know how to change it! So, every time I match with someone, I have to say, 'You know I'm 46, right?'
I don't like ageing, I don't like being older, time is going too fast, and life is like a train running at high speed. I have a real problem with it.
I started lying about my age when I was 18 to be older. When I turned 21, I started lying that I was 18. It's a weakness in me.
I definitely want to have kids one day. That's something I've always wanted since as long as I could remember. And the older I get, the more I'm like, "I'm too young!"
When you're 21, you think, 'Oh God, when I'm 36, oh God, that's nearly 40 and I'll look really old and wrinkly by then.' And actually, I quite like the way I look.
Over and over in the play my character says, "I'm thirty-two years old," as if that should explain everything that's wrong in her life. I don't know what it's like to be thirty-two, but I can imagine. I imagine she means she's stuck in an in-between time, she's at an age that isn't a milestone but more of a no-man's-land, an age where she's feeling like her hopes are fading.
I feel like I look 16 sometimes, which is a bummer, because I would love to date older guys.
Sometimes as a boy, you really want to feel older and mature.
I think we all want to successfully push back the aging process, to deny the aging process. Who among us says, 'Yippee, I'm getting older'?
Today Mitt Romney is 68 years old. It's kind of sad, a 68-year-old guy with no job, no future - wait a minute, that's me.
It's kind of like a midlife crisis kind of thing. When you turn 40, you have to run the marathon, while all the parts still work properly.
In every age 'the good old days' were a myth. No one ever thought they were good at the time. For every age has consisted of crises that seemed intolerable to the people who lived through them.
Stop living a day at a time and stop worrying about age.
