It takes a long time to become young.

The crucial task of old age is balance: keeping just well enough, just brave enough, just gay and interested and starkly honest enough to remain a sentient human being.

It doesn’t matter what color, sex, religion, age, sexual orientation, etc., everyone should have the same freedoms and liberties.

The first crocodile I ever caught was at nine years of age, and it was a rescue.

I like to be alone so I can write. But focus can hurt you. I don’t want to be some stress casualty in early middle age.

I do think I feel it but you don’t think you are cause at a certain time you are no age but you don’t think you are anything. You feel the life you have lived. I feel that. It’s been a long fifty years.

You watch yourself age and it’s hard to feel like a sex symbol.

In my older age, I’ve learned to take things slower, because I used to be that total-fall-in-love-after-a-day guy.

I’d always thought the Rats were good fun, but one of the very nice things about being of Saga age is that I can actually look back and think, When I was younger I was in a great band. It was always a collective thing.

Childhood itself is scarcely more lovely than a cheerful, kindly, sunshiny old age.
