After 40, your chances of getting pregnant are between two and eight percent, and in my particular case, they were less than five percent.

After 45 years of marriage, when I have an argument with my wife, if we don't agree, we do what she wants. But, when we agree, we do what I want!
‐‐ Jacques Pepin
After 50, the rock 'n' roll road is a little absurd. It's very difficult to play these little places. You're out there on a rickety old bus with no place to shower.
‐‐ Nancy Sinatra
After 50 years in the motion picture business, I'm still learning my trade. This recent shoot of 'Mandie and the Secret Tunnel' was a revelation. The two young directors, Joy Chapman and Owen Smith, represent a group of actors, directors, and cinematographers all over the country that never show up in New York or Hollywood.

After 50 years of smoking unfiltered cigarettes, my father died, too young, of a massive heart attack. He was 69. It's almost certain that all those years of nicotine inhalation were a major contributor to his clogged arteries.
‐‐ Tom Brokaw
After 60, it's just patch, patch, patch.
‐‐ Mary Martin
After 87 pictures in 47 years, I knew when to quit.

After 9/11 and the impending actors' strike of a few years ago, roles dried up for everyone.
‐‐ Alfre Woodard
After 9/11, Hekmatyar helped Osama bin Laden escape from the mountains of Tora Bora into Pakistan, and then decamped to Iran, until his presence there became a bit too inconvenient.
‐‐ Terry Glavin
After 9/11, I changed a lot of the ways I viewed the world. I realized my comedy and my politics and my view of the world did not match. I had to start writing from my heart.
‐‐ Hari Kondabolu
After 9/11, I knew I wanted to write about power and identity and the way Americans on all sides of the political spectrum often mythologize our leaders, which are themes that the superhero genre has always handled really well.
‐‐ Brian K. Vaughan
After 9/11, many of the most important news outlets in America abdicated their role as a check to power - the journalistic responsibility to challenge the excesses of government - for fear of being seen as unpatriotic and punished in the market during a period of heightened nationalism.
‐‐ Edward Snowden
After 9/11, most Americans were in no mood to talk with our enemies in the Middle East, whatever those enemies' ideology, and the Bush administration's policies of invasion and pre-emption reflected that sentiment.
‐‐ Noah Feldman
After 9/11, new security measures not only added longer lines and earlier check-ins, but took away our privilege of carrying knitting needles or our favorite moisturizer on board with us. Although we want to be safe when we fly, in some ways it all just adds to the misery of our experience.
‐‐ Ann Hood
After 9/11, the amount of applicants the FBI received increased exponentially. Whereas you used to require a college degree, and it was a small group of people who were just out of college, after 9/11, it changed.
‐‐ Aaron Tveit
After 9/11, the businesses in my district and throughout the New York metropolitan area saw firsthand the result of a lack of availability of terrorism insurance.
‐‐ Steve Israel
After 9/11, there was so much distress in America that it led to an inter-cultural breakdown. Some of our communities were targeted. Many of our adults shut themselves off from other cultures. I tried to bring children of Indian and other cultures together in my literature.
‐‐ Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni
After 9/11, we did see Palestinian terrorism in the context of all terrorism.
‐‐ Elliott Abrams
After 9/11, we realized that all these silly culture wars, and arguing about rock lyrics... who cares? You know, we, for some reason, remembered what our real problems are.
‐‐ Frank Rich
After 9/11, whatever the evidence of intelligence failures, many people still saw that attack as almost unimaginable, so brutal and brazen an assault.
‐‐ Nancy Gibbs
After a big war a nation doesn't want another for a generation or more.
‐‐ Edward Grey
After a breakup, it takes a couple weeks for the fog to settle, but it's always a period of self-priority and growth. Life presents you with so many decisions. A lot of times, they're right in front of your face and they're really difficult, but we must make them.
‐‐ Brittany Murphy
After a brief period in which I had let many a Southern Californian convince me that it was all 'in my mind,' I am once again officially allergic to dogs.
‐‐ Josh Radnor
After a century of striving, after a year of debate, after a historic vote, health care reform is no longer an unmet promise. It is the law of the land.
‐‐ Barack Obama
After a century of studying schizophrenia, the cause of the disorder remains unknown.
‐‐ Thomas R. Insel
After a century of trying, we declared that healthcare in America is not a privilege for a few, it is a right for everybody. After decades of talk, we finally began to wean ourselves off foreign oil. We doubled our production of clean energy. We brought more of our troops home to their families, and we delivered justice to Osama bin Laden.
‐‐ Barack Obama
After a certain number of years, our faces become our biographies.
‐‐ Cynthia Ozick
After a certain point, money is meaningless. It ceases to be the goal. The game is what counts.
‐‐ Aristotle Onassis
After a certain point, most people, including editors, will tell you everything you do is great.
‐‐ Ken Follett
After a couple of attempts at making shorts, I decided to make a feature film with a friend, Tom Hall, whom I've worked with ever since.
‐‐ John Carney
After a couple of failed attempts, I came up with a weird tuning where I was dropping the G string down a step so that it became a seventh, and it got me to a place where I could play all these figures fairly easily. It was not an easy thing to work out.
‐‐ Lindsey Buckingham
After a couple of years of public high school, I went to Exeter - an insane conglomeration of adolescent males in the wilderness, all of whom claimed to hate poetry.
‐‐ Donald Hall
After a couple years of occasional lessons with Pass I moved to Boston to attend the New England Conservatory.
‐‐ Mark White
After a crisis we tell ourselves we understand why it happened and maintain the illusion that the world is understandable. In fact, we should accept the world is incomprehensible much of the time.
‐‐ Daniel Kahneman
After a day of writing, I love nothing more than to go into my kitchen and start chopping onions and garlic on the way to cooking an improvised meal with whatever ingredients are on hand. Cooking is the perfect counterpoint to writing. I find it more relaxing than anything else, even naps, walks, or hot baths.
‐‐ Kate Christensen
After a decade in public life working to stop Iran from ever acquiring nuclear weapons, I cannot support a deal giving Iran billions of dollars in sanctions relief - in return for letting it maintain an advanced nuclear program and the infrastructure of a threshold nuclear state.
‐‐ Ted Deutch
After a decade this glum, we deserved a shot of 'Glee,' a show that restored our faith in the power of song, the beauty of dance, and the magic of 'spirit fingers' to chase our cares and woes into somebody else's backyard.
‐‐ James Wolcott
After a fellow gets famous it doesn't take long for someone to bob up that used to sit by him in school.
‐‐ Kin Hubbard
After a few drinks, my mom would recite her lines as Portia in 'The Merchant of Venice' from her high school play. But I first discovered Shakespeare properly when I was about five. I used to look for the most complicated books I could find and pretend to be reading them. I wanted people to think I was smart.
‐‐ Chris Adrian
After a few games I knew I was going to be able to compete. The idea of being a star never crossed my mind.
‐‐ Merlin Olsen
After a few months in my parents' basement, I took an apartment near the state university, where I discovered both crystal methamphetamine and conceptual art. Either one of these things are dangerous, but in combination they have the potential to destroy entire civilizations.
‐‐ David Sedaris
After a few years of intensive research, we found a way to use a pulsed laser directed into a nozzle to vaporize any material, allowing for the first time the atoms of any element in the periodic table to be produced cold in a supersonic beam.
‐‐ Richard Smalley
After a few years of marriage a man can look right at a woman without seeing her and a woman can see right through a man without looking at him.
‐‐ Helen Rowland
After a foreign invasion, there has to be a sort of feeling of musical inadequacy in the country.
‐‐ Simon Le Bon
After a generation of misrule under Mr. Hussein, who built a huge military infrastructure while neglecting civilian investment, and a dozen years of United Nations sanctions, Iraq's unemployment rate tops 50 percent.
‐‐ Alex Berenson
After a gig I always head back to the hotel, remembering granny's words of wisdom. I cancel the late-night pizza and watch the Jonathan Ross show instead.
‐‐ Jimmy Carr
After a goalless first half, the score at half time is 0-0.
‐‐ Brian Moore
After 'A Good Day to Die Hard,' I had a bit of an identity crisis as far as where I wanted to place myself in the business. When it's all new and fresh, there is a lot of pressure to know what you represent, and I didn't really get that.
‐‐ Jai Courtney
After a great deal of thought and discussions with my family, I have decided not to seek re-election in 2014. Politics shouldn't be a career, and I never intended to make it one.

After a hard day of basic training, you could eat a rattlesnake.
