Youth

Nothing can be so amusingly arrogant as a young man who has just discovered an old idea and thinks it is his own.
- Sidney J. Harris
Youth Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Youth

1.
Youth does not require reasons for living, it only needs pretexts.
Gasset, Jose Ortega Y

2.
The secret of eternal youth is arrested development.
Alice Roosevelt Longworth

3.
Ask the young. They know everything.
Joubert, Joseph

4.
Like a kite cut from the string, lightly the soul of my youth has taken flight
Takuboku, Ishikawa

5.
Youth is not a question of years: one is young or old from birth.
Barney, Natalie Clifford

6.
Don't laugh at youth for his affectations; he is only trying on one face after another to find his own.
Smith, Logan Pearsall

7.
Youth is the time to go flashing from one end of the world to the other to try the manners of different nations; to hear the chimes at midnight; to see the sunrise in town and country; to be converted at a revival; to circumnavigate the metaphysics, write halting verses, run a mile to see a fire, and wait all day long in the theatre to applaud Hernani.
Stevenson, Robert Louis

8.
Youth is about the only thing worth having, and that is about the only thing youth has.
Howe, Edgar Watson

9.
You can only be young once. But you can always be immature.
Dave Barry

10.
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

11.
Youth doesn't reason, it acts. The old man reasons and would like to make the others act in his place.
Picabia, Francis

12.
Young people need models, not critics...
Wooden, John

13.
They [Young People] have exalted notions, because they have not been humbled by life or learned its necessary limitations; moreover, their hopeful disposition makes them think themselves equal to great things -- and that means having exalted notions. They would always rather do noble deeds than useful ones: Their lives are regulated more by moral feeling than by reasoning -- all their mistakes are in the direction of doing things excessively and vehemently. They overdo everything -- they love too much, hate too much, and the same with everything else.
Aristotle

14.
As youth lives in the future, so the adult lives in the past: No one rightly knows how to live in the present.
Grillparzer, Franz

15.
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

16.
No wise man ever wished to be younger.
Jonathan Swift

17.
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

18.
We live in an age when to be young and to be indifferent can be no longer synonymous. We must prepare for the coming hour. The claims of the Future are represented by suffering millions; and the Youth of a Nation are the trustees of Posterity.
Disraeli, Benjamin

19.
No man knows he is young while he is young.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.

20.
A youth with his first cigar makes himself sick; a youth with his first girl makes everybody sick.
Little, Mary

21.
The dead might as well try to speak to the living as the old to the young.
Willa Cather

22.
We cannot always build the future for our youth, but we can build our youth for the future.
Franklin D. Roosevelt

23.
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

24.
Youth is unduly busy with pampering the outer person.
Horace

25.
The pursuit of happiness, which American citizens are obliged to undertake, tends to involve them in trying to perpetuate the moods, tastes and aptitudes of youth.
Muggeridge, Malcolm

26.
Youth itself is a talent -- a perishable talent.
Hoffer, Eric

27.
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

28.
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

29.
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

30.
A hundred things are done today in the divine name of Youth, that if they showed their true colors would be seen by rights to belong rather to old age.
Lewis, Wyndham

31.
Youth cannot know how age thinks and feels. But old men are guilty if they forget what it was to be young.
J. K. Rowling

32.
It is not possible for civilization to flow backwards while there is youth in the world. Youth may be headstrong, but it will advance it allotted length.
Keller, Helen

33.
Youth covets; let not this covetousness seduce you.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von

34.
What a mistake to suppose that the passions are strongest in youth! The passions are not stronger, but the control over them is weaker! They are more easily excited, they are more violent and apparent; but they have less energy, less durability, less intense and concentrated power than in the maturer life.
Edward Bulwer-Lytton

35.
If youth but knew; if age but could.
Estienne, Henri

36.
Youth lives on hope, old age on memories.
Proverb, French

37.
If youth but had the knowledge and old age the strength.
Proverb, French

38.
It is the failing of youth not to be able to restrain its own violence.
Seneca

39.
I, for one, hope that youth will again revolt and again demoralize the dead weight of conformity that now lies upon us.
Jones, Howard M.

40.
Idle youth, enslaved to everything; by being too sensitive I have wasted my life.
Rimbaud, Arthur

41.
We have some salt of our youth in us.
William Shakespeare

42.
The young, whether they know it or not, live on borrowed property.
Livingston, Richard W.

43.
The young always have the same problem -- how to rebel and conform at the same time. They have now solved this by defying their parents and copying one another.
Crisp, Quentin

44.
Youth has become a class.
Vadim, Roger

45.
I've never understood why people consider youth a time of freedom and joy. It's probably because they have forgotten their own.
Atwood, Margaret

46.
There's something amazing about the passion of youth and its power to sustain. If there's a more powerful energy source, I don't know about it.
Takayuki Ikkaku, Arisa Hosaka and Toshihiro Kawabata

47.
Youth has no age.
Picasso, Pablo

48.
Well, youth is the period of assumed personalities and disguises. It is the time of the sincerely insincere.
Pritchett, V. S.

49.
Yes is how you get your first job, and your next job, and your spouse, and even your kids. Even if it's a bit edgy, a bit out of your comfort zone, saying yes means that you will do something new, meet someone new and make a difference.
Eric Schmidt

50.
We are none of us infallible--not even the youngest of us.
W. H. Thompson
