Youth Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Youth

1.
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.
Phean, Luella F.

2.
The passions of the young are vices in the old.
Joubert, Joseph

3.
To be young is all there is in the world. They talk so beautifully about work and having a family and a home (and I do, too, sometimes) --but it's all worry and head-aches and respectable poverty and forced gushing. Telling people how nice it is, when, in reality, you would give all of your last thirty years for one of your first thirty. Old people are tremendous frauds.
Stevens, Wallace

4.
Youth would be an ideal state if it came a little later in life.
Herbert Henry Asquith

5.
Youth is the trustee of prosperity.
Disraeli, Benjamin

6.
In grade school, I was a complete geek. You know, there's always the kid who's too short, the kid who wears glasses, the kid who's not athletic. Well, I was all three.
Moore, Julianne

7.
Do not commit the error common among the young, of assuming that if you cannot save the whole of mankind you have failed.
Hartog, Jan De

8.
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.
Friedrich Nietzsche

9.
It is all that the young can do for the old, to shock them and keep them up to date.
Shaw, George Bernard

10.
A youth with his first cigar makes himself sick; a youth with his first girl makes everybody sick.
Little, Mary

11.
Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth; and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thine heart, and in the sight of thine eyes: but know thou, that for all these things God will bring thee into judgment. [Ecclesiastes 11:9]
Bible

12.
Idle youth, enslaved to everything; by being too sensitive I have wasted my life.
Rimbaud, Arthur

13.
No man knows he is young while he is young.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.

14.
Youth is not a question of years: one is young or old from birth.
Barney, Natalie Clifford

15.
Youth should be a savings bank.
Swetchine, Anne Sophie

16.
Except for an occasional heart attack I feel as young as I ever did.
Benchley, Robert

17.
Boyhood, like measles, is one of those complaints which a man should catch young and have done with, for when it comes in middle life it is apt to be serious.
P. G. Wodehouse

18.
Youth itself is a talent -- a perishable talent.
Hoffer, Eric

19.
A sensual and intemperate youth translates into an old worn-out body.
Cicero, Marcus T.

20.
The denunciation of the young is a necessary part of the hygiene of older people, and greatly assists the circulation of their blood.
Smith, Logan Pearsall

21.
Youth covets; let not this covetousness seduce you.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von

22.
Those whom the gods love grow young.
Wilde, Oscar

23.
If youth be a defect, it is one that we outgrow only too soon.
Lowell, James Russell

24.
Like a kite cut from the string, lightly the soul of my youth has taken flight
Takuboku, Ishikawa

25.
Don't laugh at a youth for his affectations; he is only trying on one face after another to find his own.
Logan Pearsall Smith

26.
I remember my youth and the feeling that will never come back any more --the feeling that I could last for ever, outlast the sea, the earth, and all men; the deceitful feeling that lures us on to joys, to perils, to love, to vain effort --to death; the triumphant conviction of strength, the heat of life in the handful of dust, the glow in the heart that with every year grows dim, grows cold, grows small, and expires --and expires, too soon, too soon --before life itself.
Conrad, Joseph

27.
Youth does not require reasons for living, it only needs pretexts.
Gasset, Jose Ortega Y

28.
Lets tell young people the best books are yet to written; the best painting, the best government the best of everything is yet to be done by them.
Erskine, John

29.
In the first day of my youth I tried to find it in the creatures, as I saw others do: but the more I sought, the less I found it, and the nearer I went to it, the further off it was. For of every image that appeared to me, before I had fully tested it, or abandoned myself to peace in it, and inner voice said to me: 'This is not what thou seekest.'
Suso, Heinrich

30.
The child thinks of growing old as an almost obscene calamity, which for some mysterious reason will never happen to itself. All who have passed the age of thirty are joyless grotesques, endlessly fussing about things of no importance and staying alive without, so far as the child can see, having anything to live for. Only child life is real life.
Orwell, George

31.
On the neck of a young man sparkles no gem so gracious as enterprise.
Hafiz

32.
You can only be young once. But you can always be immature.
Dave Barry

33.
Youth gets together with their materials to build a bridge to the moon or maybe a palace on earth; then in middle age they decide to build a woodshed with them instead.
Thoreau, Henry David

34.
Don't laugh at youth for his affectations; he is only trying on one face after another to find his own.
Smith, Logan Pearsall

35.
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.
W. Somerset Maugham

36.
It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth. [Lamentations 3:27]
Bible

37.
The young, whether they know it or not, live on borrowed property.
Livingston, Richard W.

38.
The secret of eternal youth is arrested development.
Alice Roosevelt Longworth

39.
Every youth owes it to himself and to the world to make the most possible out of the stuff that is in him...
Marden, Orison Swett

40.
We have some salt of our youth in us.
William Shakespeare

41.
The young know how truly difficult and dreadful youth can be. Their youth is wasted on everyone else, that's the horror. The young have no authority, no respect.
Anne Rice

42.
Remember that as a teenager you are at the last stage in your life when you will be happy to hear that the phone is for you.
Lebowitz, Fran

43.
What Youth deemed crystal, Age finds out was dew.
Browning, Robert

44.
Youth has no age.
Picasso, Pablo

45.
So different are the colors of life, as we look forward to the future, or backward to the past; and so different the opinions and sentiments which this contrariety of appearance naturally produces, that the conversation of the old and young ends generally with contempt or pity on either side.
Johnson, Samuel

46.
We cannot always build the future for our youth, but we can build our youth for the future.
Franklin D. Roosevelt

47.
Youth, abundant wealth, high birth, and inexperience, are, each of them a source of ruin. What then must be the fate of those in whom all four are combined.
Hitopadesa

48.
All lovely things will have an ending, All lovely things will fade and die; And youth, that's now so bravely spending, Will beg a penny by and by.
Aiken, Conrad

49.
The good thing about being young is that you are not experienced enough to know you cannot possibly do the things you are doing.

50.
Time misspent in youth is sometimes all the freedom one ever has.
Brookner, Anita
