Live in such a way as, when you come to die, you will wish to have lived. [Ger., Lebe, wie Du, wenn du stirbst, Wunschen wirst, gelebt zu haben.]

Christian Furchtegott Gellert Poet

I think women should start to embrace their age. What's the alternative to getting older? You die. I can't change the day I was born. But I can take care of my skin, my body, my mind, and try to live my life and be happy.

Olivia Munn Actress

I've got everything I had 20 years ago, except now it's all lower.

Gypsy Rose Lee Actress

Happy 60th Birthday, good buddy. How are you dealing with your awful debility, lessened utility and loss of mobility?

John Walter Bratton Composer

Every five years, I like to do a big birthday party. I had my 45th birthday with 75 friends in Marrakesh, Morocco.

Chip Conley Author

My parents screened 'Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory' for my 6th birthday, and I became fascinated by the idea of living in a candy land with chocolate rivers and lollipop trees.

Dylan Lauren

I'm 36 and if I met a woman of my own age and married her, I'd also be marrying her former life, her past. It might be OK for some people - I don't want to judge it or anything - but it's not for me. It would destroy my creativity.

Henry Rollins Musician

Robert Duvall saw me playing at a restaurant in Louisiana and invited me to be an extra in his movie 'The Apostle.' He gave me a guitar for my sixth birthday, and I thought that was the coolest thing in the world.

Hunter Hayes Singer-Songwriter
