Albert J. Nock
When I first told people I was writing a book, some would say that was interesting, but others thought it was some holiday project and I would lose interest. I think my parents thought the same thing, and they were surprised when I kept going. I'm not sure I thought I would keep going, but then it became a big part of my life.
Alexandra Adornetto
There are old people in San Francisco because my parents still live there. The young tech bros don't see old people or children. The Mission district, where they live and work, they don't see children or old people. That statement revealed, to me, the blinders that the techies are wearing.

Alexandra Petri

Amy Grant
The point of journalism is to hold people in positions of power accountable.
Ana Kasparian
Some old people, they remember that they used to play clarinet, and they remember the squeaks of the clarinet. But I don't play like that.
Anat Cohen
If I told people that I knew what I was doing, nobody would believe me, so why even try and fake it?
Andrew Mason
While all old people have been young, no young people have been old, and this troubling fact engenders the frustration of all parents and elders, which is that while you can describe your experience, you cannot confer it.
Andrew Solomon
Pure entertainment is not an egotistical lady singing boring songs onstage for two hours and people in tuxes clapping whether they like it or not. It's the real performers on the street who can hold people's attention and keep them from walking away.
Andy Kaufman
I should be in an old people's home now, counting the roses in the wallpaper. It's a good life, isn't it?
Anne Reid
When I told people my plan was to knock everyone out in the amateurs and become world champion as quickly as I could as a professional, a lot of people said it was impossible.
Anthony Yarde
Even George W. Bush, who as president pushed the boundaries of executive power, never proposed a statutory scheme to hold people indefinitely.
Ari Melber
I started quite young at school, compering a charity event at an old people's home. I would do stand up and impressions and enjoyed the laughter. It's very addictive. It's a lovely sensation to say something and hear a whole room laugh.
Armando Iannucci
In India, women are still the primary caregivers. Whether it be for children, whether it be for old people or sick people, you are the primary caregiver. No matter what position you are in.
Arundhati Bhattacharya
Racism been over. It's the old people that keep on holding on to it.
ASAP Ferg
I think it's strange when people my age and younger get surgery. Somebody's got to play old people.

Even if I have to stand alone, I will not be afraid to stand alone. I'm going to fight for you. I'm going to fight for what's right. I'm going to fight to hold people accountable.
For me, forgiveness and compassion are always linked: how do we hold people accountable for wrongdoing and yet at the same time remain in touch with their humanity enough to believe in their capacity to be transformed?

Jesus didn't hold people accountable; He just held them close - because it works better.
That's the hard part about sport: as men we haven't started to be in our prime, but as athletes we are old people. I needed support. I lost trust and did stupid things.
I know why politicians want to go on TV: that's where really old people are. And old people vote.
Kids are born into the situation they're born into, and obviously, they have no control over that. And we, as adults, it's up to us to take care of kids - that's part of your moral responsibility. I always tell people, 'There's two groups we should take care of - old people and young people.'
After 2008, I told people that conservatives were going to be invisible for a while. But, with time, our ideas would be back.
We need to do a better job identifying what's contributing to the crime and making sure we hold people accountable in a way that addresses that root cause.
When old people speak it is not because of the sweetness of words in our mouths; it is because we see something which you do not see.
I don't care about age very much. I think back to the old people I knew when I was growing up, and they always seemed larger than life.
I think back to the old people I knew when I was growing up, and they always seemed larger than life.
Someone said Anderson Silva and GSP would be a $12 million fight. I told people that for $12 million, I'd fight them both right now. At the same time. People took that as 'He's going to fight again.' It was a joke. But if you came up with $12 million, yeah, of course I will fight again.
If you meet a girl who says: 'Darling, what do you mean? Of course I wear suspenders. I've worn them all my life. I think tights are for old people,' then know this: she's desperate to have kids, she wants you and her to live in the same house as her mum, she never wants to go out and she just wants to lie on your chest for the next 15 years.
As leaders, it's our job to hold people accountable and to produce results for our partners, customers, and families.
I have a wonderful respect for old people.
I used to love to sit and listen to the old people talk about yesterday. There's a lot of good information there.
I always told people Alabama was the smartest state because it has four As and a B.
In 2003, I had testicular cancer, and I didn't tell anyone about it - maybe five people. I had a fairly significant surgery. I was weak, slumped over. I told people at work I'd been in an accident.
They studio were flabbergasted when they discovered how interested everybody was in 'those old people.' And now many upcoming projects feature older people; it's become a trend.

Sometimes when you're with the same old people, you get the same old thing.
I think the lie we've told people in the marketplace is that a degree gets you a job. A degree doesn't get you a job. What gets you a job is the ability to carry yourself into that room and shake a hand and look someone in the eye and have people skills. These are the things that cause people to become successful.
Miami is the place where all great Medicare fraud schemes come from. It has a great concentration of professional criminals and old people.
There are fads in life and old people indulge things to excess sometimes.
I told people I was going to be a wrestler, and they fell down laughing.
I was like, 'Man, bluegrass - that's like Roy Clark playing banjo on 'Hee Haw.' I'm a huge 'Hee Haw' fan. But I didn't know about bluegrass. It seemed like old people's music.
