Youth

Young men are apt to think themselves wise enough, as drunken men are apt to think themselves sober enough.
- Chesterfield, Lord
Youth Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Youth

1.
It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth. [Lamentations 3:27]
Bible

2.
Youth is not a question of years: one is young or old from birth.
Barney, Natalie Clifford

3.
When the newspapers have got nothing else to talk about, they cut loose on the young. The young are always news. If they are up to something, that's news. If they aren't, that's news too.
Rexroth, Kenneth

4.
Youth lives on hope, old age on memories.
Proverb, French

5.
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.

6.
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

7.
Youth is happy because it has the ability to see beauty. Anyone who keeps the ability to see beauty never grows old.
Kafka, Franz

8.
Youth, which is forgiven everything, forgives itself nothing: age, which forgives itself everything, is forgiven nothing.
George Bernard Shaw

9.
The American ideal is youth --handsome, empty youth.
Miller, Henry

10.
As I approve of a youth that has something of the old man in him, so I am no less pleased with an old man that has something of the youth. He that follows this rule may be old in body, but can never be so in mind.
Cicero, Marcus T.

11.
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

12.
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.

13.
Time misspent in youth is sometimes all the freedom one ever has.
Brookner, Anita

14.
When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be twenty-one, I was astonished at how much the old man had learned in seven years.
Billings, Josh

15.
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

16.
You can only be young once. But you can always be immature.
Dave Barry

17.
Trouble is, kids feel they have to shock their elders and each generation grows up into something harder to shock.
Lindsey, Ben

18.
Youth does not require reasons for living, it only needs pretexts.
Gasset, Jose Ortega Y

19.
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

20.
Youth is such a wonderful thing. What a crime to waste it on children.
Shaw, George Bernard

21.
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

22.
Youth is to all the glad season of life; but often only by what it hopes, not by what it attains, or what it escapes.
Carlyle, Thomas

23.
What Youth deemed crystal, Age finds out was dew.
Browning, Robert

24.
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

25.
It is the failing of youth not to be able to restrain its own violence.
Seneca

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.
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

28.
I'm youth, I'm joy, I'm a little bird that has broken out of the egg.
James M. Barrie

29.
Youth today must be strong, unafraid, and a better taxpayer than its father.
Wade, H. V.

30.
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

31.
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

32.
Youth is ever apt to judge in haste, and lose the medium in the wild extreme.
Hill, Aaron

33.
Except for an occasional heart attack I feel as young as I ever did.
Benchley, Robert

34.
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

35.
Idle youth, enslaved to everything; by being too sensitive I have wasted my life.
Rimbaud, Arthur

36.
Youth is the trustee of prosperity.
Disraeli, Benjamin

37.
Young people need models, not critics...
Wooden, John

38.
In youth we learn; in age we understand.
Marie Ebner von Eschenbach

39.
There's nothing wrong with teenagers that reasoning with them won't aggravate.
Bumper Sticker

40.
Youth should be a savings bank.
Swetchine, Anne Sophie

41.
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

42.
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

43.
We are none of us infallible--not even the youngest of us.
W. H. Thompson

44.
We have some salt of our youth in us.
William Shakespeare

45.
Blessed are the young for they shall inherit the national debt.
Hoover, Herbert Clark

46.
The young are permanently in a state resembling intoxication.
Aristotle

47.
Youth covets; let not this covetousness seduce you.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von

48.
Don't let young people tell you their aspirations; when they drop them they will drop you.
Smith, Logan Pearsall

49.
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

50.
Well, youth is the period of assumed personalities and disguises. It is the time of the sincerely insincere.
Pritchett, V. S.
