Early Twenties Quotes

I first read ‘Madame Bovary’ in my teens or early twenties Picture Quote #1

I’ve never forgotten what it’s like to be in your early twenties, which is not a particularly easy time.

We don’t really give enough credence to that time of life and to its troubles Picture Quote #1

But I’ve never been really rebellious. I’ve got a lot of support and I’m not pushed so hard that I feel like I’m going to burn out, which is what happens to a lot of actors in their early twenties Picture Quote #1

I know that when I grew up I was pretty sheltered, and didn’t come to understand much about the world until I was in my really late teens and early twenties, and that process continues Picture Quote #1

What a beautiful world it would be if people had hearts like dogs - Dog Quotes

I reread ‘Nicholas and Alexandra’ in my early twenties, and I never forgot the story Picture Quote #1

I have a lot of land. I bought it because I had a very strong feeling. I was in my early twenties, and I had grown up in Los Angeles and had seen that city slide off into the sea from the city I knew as a little kid. It lost its identity - suddenly there was cement everywhere and the green was gone and the air was bad - and I wanted out Picture Quote #1

I used to have about a hundred suits in my late twenties and early thirties when my stock was riding high and I was rich Picture Quote #1

I suffered when I was in my late twenties and early thirties. I was awkward, I stuck out, I was nerdy Picture Quote #1

I’ve been a much happier person in my early thirties than I was in my twenties Picture Quote #1

In my early twenties, I had no idea who I was. And I think that’s one reason you should try different relationships. I’ve had good and bad ones, but I took away things from them that helped me become who I am Picture Quote #1

A true friend is someone who accepts your past, supports your present and encourages your future - Friend Quotes

When I first saw you I fell in love, and you smiled because you knew - William Shakespeare Quotes

I think when I was in my early twenties and middle twenties I didn’t even know I wasn’t living up to my potential. A couple of friends told me I wasn’t and told me to get my act together, and it made a huge impact on me Picture Quote #1

Within that ageing outer shell we remain very much the same as we did in our late teens and early twenties Picture Quote #1

I am haunted by what my life would have been had I not had the courage in my early twenties to leave Pittsburgh for New York City and really commit to being a writer.

I don’t know what age the people who review my concerts reached puberty, I don’t know if people in America reach puberty a lot later than they do in England or something like that, but the majority of those people are in their late teens and early twenties Picture Quote #1

In Among the White Moon Faces, I wrote about my desire to be a writer as rooted in my obsessive hours of reading English novels and poetry. It was that spur, that desire, that pushed me to set aside love and marriage in my early twenties Picture Quote #1

Every snotty egotistical teenager thinks they’re smarter than the world they crawled out of. It didn’t take me so long to grow out of that. I think I was only in my early twenties when I realized I was just relying on received ideas Picture Quote #1

I like me a little bit more when i'm with you - Love Quotes

And then you meet one person and your life changes forever - Love Quotes

Of course, I can’t separate my queerness from my brownness - if anything, my queerness amplifies my brownness, and vice versa - but I spent so much of my early twenties trying to erase my differences, often without awareness of what I was doing Picture Quote #1

When you’re seventeen to early twenties, that’s the time you’re trying to work out who you are. If you’re trying to make some kind of artistic or creative impact, that’s the age when you start to figure out how to do that Picture Quote #1

If you’re in your early twenties, don’t put so much importance on the money, on the raise. Getting an extra thousand dollars a year is okay, but the real thing is the responsibility and the power and the experience that you’re learning Picture Quote #1

In your late teens and early twenties, everything is idealism. Everything should just work in black and white. That’s good. You need that. I think most revolutions are started by people in their teens and twenties Picture Quote #1

The first fiction I ever wrote was short stories. I was writing short stories in my late teens and early twenties, and I think it’s how you teach yourself to write Picture Quote #1

A year from now you'll wish you started today - Work Quotes

Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results - Albert Einstein Quotes

It was a bizarre existence I led in my early twenties - that cliche of the comedian who goes out and entertains a roomful of people and then goes home to a lonely bedsit was unbelievably poignant for me because that was exactly what I was doing. I had periods of real loneliness Picture Quote #1

When I was in my early twenties, my mom started repeating things, asking the same questions, telling the same stories. It was like, Oh, God, this is not right. When I was 25, my brother and I finally told our dad we had to take her to the doctor Picture Quote #1

I’ve never really socialized; I’ve always been anti-social and preferred to be at home. I was never, even my late teens and early twenties, into clubs and parties and stuff like that Picture Quote #1
