~ Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life. ~ ~ Youth is, after all, just a moment, but it is the moment, the spark, that you always carry in your heart. ~ ~ Older men declare war. But it is the youth that must fight and die. ~ ~ Manners make the fortune of the ambitious youth ~ ~ Youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind. You are as old as your doubt, your fear, your despair. The way to keep young is to keep your faith young. Keep your self-confidence young. Keep your hope young. ~ ~ Forty is the old age of youth; fifty the youth of old age. ~ ~ The condition of perfection is idleness: the aim of perfection is youth. ~ ~ Youth is easily deceived, because it is quick to hope. ~ ~ The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher esteem those who think alike than those who think differently ~ ~ Youth is that period when a young boy knows everything but how to make a living ~ ~ There is a place in God's sun for the youth 'farthest down' who has the vision, the determination, and the courage to reach it ~ ~ Youth condemns; maturity condones ~ ~ All natural goods perish. Riches take wings; fame is a breath; love is a cheat; youth and health and pleasure vanish. ~ ~ I've always believed in the adage that the secret of eternal youth is arrested development ~ ~ "Were't not affection chains thy tender days To the sweet glances of thy honored love, I rather would entreat thy company To see the wonders of the world abroad Than, living dully sluggardized at home, Wear out thy youth with shapeless idleness." ~ ~ Were't not affection chains thy tender days
To the sweet glances of thy honored love,
I rather would entreat thy company
To see the wonders of the world abroad
Than, living dully sluggardized at home,
Wear out thy youth with shapeless idleness. ~ ~ All who have meditated on the art of governing mankind have been convinced that the fate of empires depends on the education of youth. ~ ~ Laws for the liberal education of youth, especially for the lower classes of people, are so extremely wise and useful that to a humane and generous mind, no expense for this purpose would be thought extravagant. ~ ~ It is an illusion that youth is happy, an illusion of those who have lost it; but the young know they are wretched for they are full of the truthless ideal which have been instilled into them, and each time they come in contact with the real, they are bruised and wounded ~ ~ In youth we feel richer for every new illusion; in maturer years, for every one we lose. ~ ~ It is inevitable that those to whom is vouchsafed a long life of usefulness should outlive the friends of their youth ~ ~
Take time to think.. it is the source of power. Take time to play.. it is the secret of prepetual youth. Take time to readÖ it is the fountain of wisdom. Take time to pray.. it is the greatest power on earth. Take time to laughÖ it is the music of the soul. Take time to giveÖ it is too short a day to be selfish. ~ ~ Happy, happy Christmas, that can win us back to the delusions of our childhood days, recall to the old man the pleasures of his youth, and transport the traveler back to his own fireside and quiet home!
~ ~ Greatness is the dream of youth realized in old age. ~ ~ It was his optimism that Freud bequeathed to America and it was the optimism of our youthfulness, our freedom from the sterner, sadder tradition of Europe which enabled us to seize his gift. ~ ~ In youth the days are short and the years are long; in old age the years are short and the days long. ~ ~ Middle age is youth without its levity, and age without decay. ~ ~ If most men and women were forced to rely upon physical charm to attract lovers, their sexual lives would be not only meager but in a youth-worshiping country like America painfully brief. ~ ~ By education I mean that training in excellence from youth upward which makes a man passionately desire to be a perfect citizen, and teaches him to rule, and to obey, with justice. This is the only education which deserves the name. ~ ~ In youth one has tears without grief; in age, griefs without tears ~ |
