"Young man, the secret of my success is that an early age I discovered that I was not God." ― Oliver Wendell Holmes Topic(s): Age More From Oliver Wendell Holmes "The great act of faith is when a man decides he is not God." "Old age is fifteen years older than I am." "The sound of a kiss is not so loud as that of a cannon, but its echo lasts a great deal longer." More In Age "I don’t believe one grows older. I think that what happens early on in life is that at a certain age one stands still and stagnates."― T. S. Eliot "Older actors can still play young, but it’s harder for young actors to be able to play that age range."― David Schwimmer "I would often find myself, at the age of 21, at midnight, running down a dark street on my own with 10 men chasing me. And the fact they had cameras in their hands made that legal."― Sienna Miller
