Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a quote about body image at a young age?
Yes. One quote recalls that body image struggles started very young, shaped by comments from a mother, aunts, and the mother's friends about needing to lose weight - a reminder that these pressures can start as early as childhood. For more personal, first-person reflections, see Me quotes.
Does this collection mention a specific college course about an earlier era?
Yes - one quote recalls a college professor called Walter Jackson Bate, who taught a course called The Age of Johnson, about Samuel Johnson and his period of 18th-century British writing. It's a nice example of age referring to a historical era rather than someone's years lived.
Is there a quote about being an athlete as the game changes?
Yes. One quote reflects on how players used to think they'd stay in one place their whole career, trusted because they play hurt and do what it takes - but notes that it's a different age now, with things having changed. For more on life's changes over time, browse Life quotes.
Is there a quote that mentions someone's exact birth date and early life?
Yes - one quote states: "I was born on June 3rd, 1929, in Graenichen in the Canton of Aargau, Switzerland, where I went to the public schools until the age of 16." It's a precise, factual account of an early life stage. For more good, grounded quotes like this, see Good quotes.
What different senses of "age" appear on this page?
Quite a few - age as a stage of childhood body-image pressure, age as a historical period, age as it relates to a changing sports career, and age as a literal birth year and early schooling. For more warm, personal reflections, see Love quotes.
