Everything reminds Milton of the money supply. Well, everything reminds me of sex, but I keep it out of the paper.

Robert Solow

I can't think of anyone who has done anything remotely useful after the age of 80.

Peter Greenaway

Middle age is when you've met so many people that every new person you meet reminds you of someone else.

Ogden Nash

It is the same with everything else, with food, with pleasures, with sleep; with everything there is a limit to what is necessary. After this "sin" begins. This is something that must be grasped, a "sin" is something which is not necessary.

G. I. Gurdjieff

I never imagined I could make it to the top of Mount Everest at age 80. This is the world's best feeling, although I'm totally exhausted. Even at 80, I can still do quite well.

Yuichiro Miura

We live in an age of publicity and hype. There's something about success that dehumanizes you, whereas failure reminds you of who you really are.

Norman Jewison

If something can be done 80% as well by someone else, delegate!

John C. Maxwell

Because that’s how it works after something terrible has happened. You know this is true if something terrible has ever happened to you. A thousand objects take on new meaning. Everything is a reminder of something else.

Deb Caletti

I do believe if one keeps busy it's very good for a person. In fact, people are always rushing into retirement and we read in Europe that people there are talking about their retirement age and moving it to 67 or something. Well, back when they started retirement funds and everything, the average age was 70 or 60, and then all of a sudden now it's 80, and so. [...] And so you keep in shape, you keep yourself mentally in shape. And if you keep yourself mentally in shape, chances are physically it will follow suit.

Clint Eastwood

For everything you have missed, you have gained something else, and for everything you gain, you lose something else.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

After a certain age our memories are so intertwined with one another that what we are thinking of, the book we are reading, scarcely matters any more. We have put something of ourselves everywhere, everything is fertile, everything is dangerous, and we can make discoveries no less precious than in Pascal's Pensées in an advertisement for soap.

Marcel Proust

Explaining something makes it go away, so to speak; what's important is left after you have explained everything else.

Edward Gorey

Everything is always coming from something else. Even if you create something, it has to be inspired by something else. If you think of Apple and Steve Jobs, he had to be inspired by something that launched the ideas in his head.

Gza

An artist can only be evaluated after he's dead. At the 11th hour he might do something that will eclipse everything else.

Van Cliburn

I think it reminds me of my childhood, my father, .. I think people have the same reaction. It reminds you of what it was like to be a kid, where everything is carefree and fun.

Artie Lange

Each time I do a trilogy it's ten years out of my life. I'll finish Episode III and I'll be 60. And the next 20 years after that I want to spend doing something other than Star Wars. If at 80 I'm still lively and having a good time and think I can work for another 10 years between 80 and 90, I might consider it. But don't count on it. There's nothing written, and it's not like I'm completing something. I'd have to start from scratch. The idea of a third trilogy was more of a media thing than it was me.

George Lucas
