Minds ripen at very different ages.
I wanted to be a poet. I wrote from ages 15 to 22, but I left it because I discovered, and fell in love with, cinema.

Can you believe approximately 17 percent of American children ages 2 to 19 years are obese? How about this fact: approximately 60 percent of overweight children ages 5 to 10 already have at least one risk factor for heart disease? We are all to blame for this – parents, schools, kids – all of us.
I don’t have children, but I have 17 nieces and nephews, and they more than make up for anything that I can do. I have a stepdaughter, and I adore her to pieces, and I think about adoption. There are so many kids at different ages and stages that need families.
When I went to law school, which after all was back in the dark ages, we never looked beyond our borders for precedents. As a state court judge, it never would have occurred to me to do so, and when I got to the Supreme Court, it was very much the same. We just didn’t do it.
When you hear someone say something homophobic, it really ages them. It sounds old-fashioned.
Music has no limits, borders or ages.
Ages ago, when I published ‘Amelia’s Notebook,’ I’d sent it to traditional publishers I’d been working with, but nobody knew what to do with it. Tricycle was this small publisher who didn’t know any better, and they took a chance.
Advertisers rip out one another’s conscience to control the spending impulses of males ages 18 to 34, who now have the cyber world at their fingertips. They want more.

Europe’s budget plans are better designed: countries from France to Greece are raising retirement ages; others, from Britain to Germany, have created new organisations and rules to encourage fiscal probity. But Europe risks overkill.

All ages can enjoy a loud crazy man and dancing skeletons.

The institution of chivalry forms one of the most remarkable features in the history of the Middle Ages.
During the Middle Ages they understood that words accompanied by imagery are much more memorable. By making the margins of a book colorful and beautiful, illuminations help make the text unforgettable. It’s unfortunate that we’ve lost the art of illumination.
People talk about the brain weakening as it ages. Mine feels stronger.
The Beatles never got through to all ages, nor did Elvis Presley, or any of the other monuments of mediocrity that we’ve had.
Faith is a personal matter, and should never be a cudgel to stifle inquiry. We tried that approach about 1,200 years ago. The experiment was called the Dark Ages.
We have a lot of heroes. We have Asian heroes, we have Asian American heroes, men, women, of all ages, and not all of them do martial arts. But that doesn’t mean that they don’t have their own arcs, their own stories, their own subtleties and nuances. And I think that’s what’s important.
Fitness has always been a strength of mine. People seem to look at ages and think once you get over 30, you’re coming to the end. I’d like to think I’ve got a number of years left in me. I feel really good, and that’s down to the great work the staff at the club do looking after us and the facilities we have.
With our blogs and tweets, digital cameras, and unlimited-gigabyte e-mail archives, participation in the online culture now means creating a trail of always present, ever searchable, unforgetting external memories that only grows as one ages.
Boys, young men, men of all ages are being captivated by the new visual grammar which pushes men to pout and posture.
People are swept into the criminal justice system – particularly in poor communities of color – at very early ages… typically for fairly minor, nonviolent crimes.
It was ages ago now, but when we started Bastille, I didn’t necessarily want people to know or care if it was a band, and it came from a place, really, of just much rather having people listen to the songs rather than caring about the people making it.
Between the ages of 10-14, I did ballet, modern and tap. So I may have a few dancing bones in my body, but I’m not necessarily very good rhythmically.
Our concepts of aging really should be blurring because there are plenty of people who make it to older ages who aren’t really any different in many ways than people who are decades younger.
‘Simeon’s Gift’ is really – it’s about a musician who – in the Middle Ages, who goes out to find his muse.
I could talk for ages about how women are amazing, but essentially we shouldn’t be manipulated by the media’s expectations of our bodies. I’d recommend every woman to read ‘Women Who Run with the Wolves’ – it’s about being in touch with your more wild, free and powerful side.
But we’re all so different, we’re different ages; we’re not vying for the same roles. There’s no competition, there’s really kind of a sisterhood, on and off the set, you know?

I was a chorister at St Mary’s Music School, from the ages of 11 to 13, after prep school and before I went to the Durham School. Edinburgh’s my favourite city in the whole world. I don’t think there’s anywhere that comes close to it.
As a kid, I loved Air Force Ones – but they were so expensive. I always had to save up for ages to get them. Now I can call the Nike guy and be like ‘can you send me ten pairs?’ and they’ll be here the same day.
What I want is to be well-respected around all ages and all around the world.
Apart from two periods of intense study, of music between the ages of 12 and 14 and of mathematics between the ages of 14 and 16, I coasted, daydreaming, through most of my school years.
It’s unfortunate when people say you can’t wear skirts or do item numbers, or a girl can’t dress in a certain way. Are we going back to dark ages?

The growing-up-fast part weirdly happened between the ages of 15 and 22.
