Youth
I am young, I am twenty years old; yet I know nothing of life but despair, death, fear, and fatuous superficiality cast over an abyss of sorrow. I see how peoples are set against one another, and in silence, unknowingly, foolishly, obediently, innocently slay one another.
There is no man, however wise, who has not at some period of his youth said things, or lived in a way the consciousness of which is so unpleasant to him in later life that he would gladly, if he could, expunge it from his memory.
Maturity is often more absurd than youth and very frequently is most unjust to youth.
Each day is a little life: every waking and rising a little birth, every fresh morning a little youth, every going to rest and sleep a little death.
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 a blunder, Manhood a struggle, Old Age a regret.
Aging is not lost youth but a new stage of opportunity and strength.
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!
Older men declare war. But it is the youth that must fight and die.
I think it's nice to age gracefully. OK, you lose the youth, a certain stamina and dewy glow, but what you gain on the inside as a human being is wonderful: the wisdom, the acceptance and the peace of mind. It's a fair exchange.
Men and women whose early youth was shaped in the ordeal of the Great Depression showed the values formed in that crucible when tyranny threatened a world.
Ah, great it is to believe the dream as we stand in youth by the starry stream; but a greater thing is to fight life through and say at the end, the dream is true!
Youth is the gift of nature, but age is a work of art.
It's best to leap into something you know you love. You might change your mind later, but that is the privilege of youth.
I live in that solitude which is painful in youth, but delicious in the years of maturity.
The youth need to be enabled to become job generators from job seekers.
