Samuel Goldwyn I'm aiming by the time I'm fifty to stop being an adolescent. Charles Caleb Colton I'm flattered that so many baseball people think I'm a Hall of Famer. But what's hard to believe is how one-hundred and fifty plus people have changed their minds about me since I became eligible, because I haven't had a base hit since then. Richie Ashburn I've been fifty thousand times to the Louvre. I have copied everything in drawing, trying to understand. Alberto Giacometti I've been thinking about the record since I reached the fifty plateau. But you think about it and then you let it go because you can't waste many brain cells on hours thinking about it. Mark McGwire If I cut an album now and sell it for ten bucks, I can put seven dollars and fifty cents in my pocket. Mickey Gilley If I write in my name to the agents of England and France residing in Asia and inform them that Japan is ready to make a commercial treaty with their countries, the number of steamers will be reduced from fifty to two or three. Townsend Harris If the executioner goes, my package will never be made public. If he doesn't go, it will be made public exactly fifty years from the day the bill for a moratorium on capital punishment is defeated. Caryl Chessman If the Founding Fathers and other patriots who fought during the Revolutionary War could see the United States today, I believe they would be proud of the path that the thirteen colonies, now fifty strong states, have taken since then. John Linder If the history of the past fifty years teaches us anything, it is that peace does not follow disarmament - disarmament follows peace. Bernard Baruch If the new American father feels bewildered and even defeated, let him take comfort from the fact that whatever he does in any fathering situation has a fifty percent chance of being right. Bill Cosby If the present Congress errs in too much talking, how can it be otherwise in a body to which the people send one hundred and fifty lawyers, whose trade it is to question everything, yield nothing, and talk by the hour? Thomas Jefferson If you file your waste-paper basket for fifty years, you have a public library. Tony Benn In America, every female under fifty calls herself a girl. H. E. Bates In England we have come to rely upon a comfortable time-lag of fifty years or a century intervening between the perception that something ought to be done and a serious attempt to do it. H. G. Wells In fifty years of covering the sport, of course Muhammad Ali is by far the dominant figure. Dick Schaap In Hollywood, an equitable divorce settlement means each party getting fifty percent of publicity. Lauren Bacall In my fifty years of experience and memory, I have seen the most amazing increase in the standard of living of a people ever achieved anywhere in the world. This is why I am so sure that our system of free competition and industrial development is sound and must be preserved. Charles E. Wilson In Rwanda that genocide happened because the international community and the Security Council refused to give, again, another 5000 troops which would have cost, I don't know, maybe fifty, a hundred, million dollars. Lakhdar Brahimi In the last fifty years science has advanced more than in the 2,000 previous years and given mankind greater powers over the forces of nature than the ancients ascribed to their gods.
