Being Old Quotes (page 13)

M. Emmet Walsh quote: "Hell, I'm an old man. I'm 70 years old. I'm supposed to be..."
Hell, I'm an old man. I'm 70 years old. I'm supposed to be sitting on a rocking chair watching the sunset. M. Emmet Walsh
Ours is the old, old story of every uprising race or class or order. The work of elevation must be wrought by ourselves or not at all. Frances Power Cobbe
It has been said that there is no fool like an old fool, except a young fool. But the young fool has first to grow up to be an old fool to realize what a damn fool he was when he was a young fool. Harold MacMillan
I was a mixture of being incredibly old for my age and incredibly backwards. I was born quite old, but then I stopped growing. I lived with my mum and dad till I was 30. Helena Bonham Carter
Admittedly, a homosexual can be conditioned to react sexually to a woman, or to an old boot for that matter. In fact, both homo - and heterosexual experimental subjects have been conditioned to react sexually to an old boot, and you can save a lot of money that way. William S. Burroughs
So I think the fans will be totally interested in the new developments and delighted that the old developments are still there and that they can still see some of the old characters maybe reappear. Andreas Katsulas
It is old age, rather than death, that is to be contrasted with life. Old age is life's parody, whereas death transforms life into a destiny: in a way it preserves it by giving it the absolute dimension. Death does away with time. Simone de Beauvoir
Noel Redding quote: "I suppose the old natural stuff would be ok, the old mushroom,..."
I suppose the old natural stuff would be ok, the old mushroom, but I wouldn't advise anyone to do it. Noel Redding
I used to be a good party boy. I'm old. I'm an old man. You pay the consequences. I'm just fine with a couple of drinks, no more than that. Javier Bardem
I'm not trying to be new school and I'm not old school - I'm classic. There's a lot of new cars and there's a lot of old cars, but I'm just classic in doing what I do. LL Cool J
Francis Bacon quote: "I will never be an old man. To me, old age is always 15 years..."
I will never be an old man. To me, old age is always 15 years older than I am. Francis Bacon
Marcus Aurelius quote: "You must become an old man in good time if you wish to be an..."
You must become an old man in good time if you wish to be an old man long. Marcus Aurelius
I don't say he's a great man. Willie Loman never made a lot of money. His name was never in the paper. He's not the finest character that ever lived. But he's a human being, and a terrible thing is happening to him. So attention must be paid. He's not to be allowed to fall in his grave like an old dog. Attention, attention must finally be paid to such a person. Arthur Miller
... And I'm thinking about the old man. He'll be pounding on the glass right about now... or maybe not now. Maybe in a while. But he'll be pounding and... will there be blood? I like to imagine so. Yes, I rather think there will be blood. Lots of blood. Blood in extraordinary quantities. Alan Moore
Let other complain that the age is wicked; my complaint is that it is paltry; for it lacks passion. Men's thoughts are thin and flimsy like lace, they are themselves pitiable like the lacemakers. The thoughts of their hearts are too paltry to be sinful. For a worm it might be regarded as a sin to harbor such thoughts, but not for a being made in the image of God. Their lusts are dull and sluggish, their passions sleepy...This is the reason my soul always turns back to the Old Testament... Soren Kierkegaard
