Henryk Sienkiewicz Zitate

If the infinity of the sea may call out thus, perhaps when a man is growing old, calls come to him, too, from another infinity still darker and more deeply mysterious; and the more he is wearied by life the dearer are those calls to him.

Henryk Sienkiewicz

Deutsche Übersetzung

Wenn die Unendlichkeit des Meeres so auslöst, vielleicht, wenn ein Mann alt wird, kommen auch Rufe von einer anderen Unendlichkeit, die noch dunkler und tiefer geheimnisvoll ist; und je mehr er vom Leben ermüdet ist, desto lieber sind diese Rufe an ihn.

Englisches Zitat von John McEnroe als Bild

I'm 56 years old. I like to get out on the court. I continue to try to play the best I can. Obviously, I'm nowhere near where I was when half this age. But I can still hit a pretty decent ball.

John McEnroe

Everything changes as a mother. Yes, work has changed. The projects that I choose are even more important to me now. The world he's growing up in and the kind of stimulus that is out there; they are so precious and I'd do anything to protect him.

Englisches Zitat von Stevie Smith als Bild

Nobody heard him, the dead man, But still he lay moaning. I was much further out than you thought, and not waving but drowning. I was much too far out all my life, And not waving but drowning.

Stevie Smith

I do probably come down a little hard on a group of people I call the 'blue chip gays.' I mean people who have managed to become very, very famous and are still very famous partly through staying in the closet, like Jasper Johns, Cy Twombly, Susan Sontag, Harold Brodkey and others.

I'm one of those people who is actually inspired by a deadline. I might not sleep for many days on end, it may not be good for my health, but it definitely helps.

Growing up in Harlem, I had the chance to practice with a Negro League team. At fifteen, I was over six feet tall and a fair athlete, but my skills didn't come close to some of the players I saw.

Englisches Zitat von Jill Scott als Bild

When I was growing up, my mother would take me to plays and museums, and we'd talk about life. Those times helped shape who I became.

Jill Scott

Lee May's about the same age as me; he's got about the same stats. So how come he's making about one-eighty, two hundred thousand, and I'm the best damn paid player in the game? I'll tell you why: Because I put the meat in the seats!

Whenever a man's friends begin to compliment him about looking young, he may be sure that they think he is growing old.
