Youth Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Youth

1.
Youth is that period when a young boy knows everything but how to make a living.
Williams, Carey

2.
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

3.
Young people are fitter to invent than to judge; fitter for execution than for counsel; and more fit for new projects than for settled business.
Bacon, Francis

4.
Young men are apt to think themselves wise enough, as drunken men are apt to think themselves sober enough.
Chesterfield, Lord

5.
It is the failing of youth not to be able to restrain its own violence.
Seneca

6.
You can only be young once. But you can always be immature.
Dave Barry

7.
Youth is the trustee of prosperity.
Disraeli, Benjamin

8.
Youth enters the world with very happy prejudices in her own favor. She imagines herself not only certain of accomplishing every adventure, but of obtaining those rewards which the accomplishment may deserve. She is not easily persuaded to believe that the force of merit can be resisted by obstinacy and avarice, or its luster darkened by envy and malignity.
Johnson, Samuel

9.
Youth, with swift feet, walks onward in the way; the land of joy lies all before his eyes.
Bulwer-Lytton, Edward G.

10.
If youth but had the knowledge and old age the strength.
Proverb, French

11.
Youth is such a wonderful thing. What a crime to waste it on children.
Shaw, George Bernard

12.
Use your youth so that you may have comfort to remember it when it has forsaken you, and not sigh and grieve at the account thereof.
Raleigh, Sir Walter

13.
There is a period near the beginning of every man's life when he has little to cling to except his unmanageable dream, little to support him except good health, and nowhere to go but all over the place.
White, Elwyn Brooks

14.
Trouble is, kids feel they have to shock their elders and each generation grows up into something harder to shock.
Lindsey, Ben

15.
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

16.
Youth is happy because it has the ability to see beauty. Anyone who keeps the ability to see beauty never grows old.
Kafka, Franz

17.
A youth with his first cigar makes himself sick; a youth with his first girl makes everybody sick.
Little, Mary

18.
You are only young once, and if you work it right, once is enough.
Lewis, Joe E.

19.
The young are permanently in a state resembling intoxication.
Aristotle

20.
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

21.
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

22.
Don't let young people tell you their aspirations; when they drop them they will drop you.
Smith, Logan Pearsall

23.
I'm really glad that your young people missed the Depression I'm really glad that your young people missed the Depression and missed the big war. But I do regret that they missed the leaders that I knew, leaders who told us when things were tough and that we'd have to sacrifice, and that these difficulties might last awhile. They brought us together and they gave us a sense of national purpose.
Richards, Ann

24.
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

25.
We cannot always build the future for our youth, but we can build our youth for the future.
Franklin D. Roosevelt

26.
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

27.
After all, life hasn't much to offer except youth and I suppose for older people the love of youth in others.

28.
Youth does not require reasons for living, it only needs pretexts.
Gasset, Jose Ortega Y

29.
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.

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.
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

32.
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

33.
Don't laugh at youth for his affectations; he is only trying on one face after another to find his own.
Smith, Logan Pearsall

34.
I'm youth, I'm joy, I'm a little bird that has broken out of the egg.
James M. Barrie

35.
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

36.
A boy's story is the best that is ever told.
Dickens, Charles

37.
Youth today must be strong, unafraid, and a better taxpayer than its father.
Wade, H. V.

38.
It is an illusion that youth is happy, an illusion of those who has lost it.
Maugham, W. Somerset

39.
We have some salt of our youth in us.
William Shakespeare

40.
Even the youngest of us may be wrong sometimes.
Shaw, George Bernard

41.
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

42.
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

43.
In youth we learn; in age we understand.
Marie Ebner von Eschenbach

44.
Youth, large, lusty, loving -- Youth, full of grace, force, fascination. Do you know that Old Age may come after you with equal grace, force, fascination?
Whitman, Walt

45.
Youth is a period of missed opportunities.
Connolly, Cyril

46.
Youth is about the only thing worth having, and that is about the only thing youth has.
Howe, Edgar Watson

47.
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

48.
Those whom the gods love grow young.
Wilde, Oscar

49.
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

50.
No wise man ever wished to be younger.
Jonathan Swift
