O love, if I regret the age when one savors you, it is not for the hour of pleasure, but for the one that follows it.

In the television age, the key distinction is between the candidate who can speak poetry and the one who can only speak prose.

Age does not matter if the matter does not age.

I'm well past the age where I'm acceptable. You get to a certain age and you are forbidden access. You're not going to get the kind of coverage that you would like in music magazines, you're not going to get played on radio and you're not going to get played on television. I have to survive on word of mouth.

Ours is essentially a tragic age, so we refuse to take it tragically.

Ours is an excessively conscious age. We know so much, we feel so little.

Everybody past a certain age, regardless of how they look on the outside, pretty much constantly dreams of being able to escape from their lives.

One keeps forgetting old age up to the very brink of the grave.

In the age of the individual's liquidation, the question of individuality must be raised anew.

I ask you to pray for me, for once age has overtaken us, we find consolation only in religion.
