I was blessed in the sense that I got handed so much early on in life. I got a lot of the things people go through their 20s and 30s craving.
As a kid I had dreams about being successful, thinking it would be cool. Then, when I was in my 20s, I really thought I had it much more figured out than I do now.
If anything, when you're in your late 20s, early 30s, and then mid-30s, you're getting less attractive.
I always knew I had this voice, but it wasn't until I was in my 20s that I realized I had the power to do something with it.
Things dribbled in in dribs and drabs through my 20s. But it was a struggle.
I feel like I experienced my 20s in all their glory and all their disastrousness.
The first snowball I froze was put in my mother's deep freeze when I was in my early 20s.
I was very driven, very focused, very ambitious. I mean, when I look back on myself in my 20s, part of me just cringes.
I didn't really get to Led Zeppelin until I was in my 20s.
In your 20s, you learn. In your 30s, you earn.
I had gone through several crazy headache bouts, and I realized that part of the reason I was having them was because I wasn't smoking marijuana. When my daughter gave me a vape pen, I realized that I could relegate it to where I needed it to be. And I would talk to my older grandkids in their 20s, and they'd say they use weed to stop cramps. That's when I really started to investigate and asked the question, "Is anybody doing this?" And they gave me that horrifying answer: "niche market".
I spent my teens and early 20s shopping almost exclusively at thrift stores.
Benny Goodman's band was integrated before baseball. Even before it was physically integrated, music was integrated. Everyone listened to Armstrong and Ellington. The 20s was called the Jazz Age. It's part of being American.
When I was a child, my parents taught a literal creation. By the time I was in my 20s they were accommodating evolution. In other words, less creed, more roll with changing ways of seeing. Maybe adapting is a better way to see this.
There is a lot of years in my 20s that acting was really on the back burner not even saying I was traveling and writing, taking pictures and just kind of living and figuring out what I wanted to do.
Music didn't really occur to me. Michael Jordan and Batman were my favorite two entities then. Michael Jackson was there, but I didn't really get into Bob Dylan, for instance, until I was in my 20s. The record I heard of his that got me interested in singing was Knocked Out Loaded, which is what many people consider to be his worst record.
I would say sleep can always be emphasized - I didn't do it enough in my 20s, because you don't think you need it.
I think whether you've got children or not you're just more aware of others as you get out of your 20s.
Kat and I were in our 20s when we won in '88. Our personalities were already established. We were ready to move on to a life of professional skating.
I've changed my life in a lot of ways. I'm a mom, a wife, and a Christian. Some of the things I expressed in my early 20s aren't what I care to express right now.
