Youth

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.
Youth Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Youth

1.
Even the youngest of us may be wrong sometimes.
Shaw, George Bernard

2.
The American ideal is youth --handsome, empty youth.
Miller, Henry

3.
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

4.
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

5.
Youth has no age.
Picasso, Pablo

6.
Idle youth, enslaved to everything; by being too sensitive I have wasted my life.
Rimbaud, Arthur

7.
We are none of us infallible--not even the youngest of us.
W. H. Thompson

8.
Youth is that period when a young boy knows everything but how to make a living.
Williams, Carey

9.
Like a kite cut from the string, lightly the soul of my youth has taken flight
Takuboku, Ishikawa

10.
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

11.
Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.
Ullman, Samuel

12.
We have some salt of our youth in us.
William Shakespeare

13.
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

14.
If youth but knew; if age but could.
Estienne, Henri

15.
Youth, with swift feet, walks onward in the way; the land of joy lies all before his eyes.
Bulwer-Lytton, Edward G.

16.
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

17.
Youth is happy because it has the ability to see beauty. Anyone who keeps the ability to see beauty never grows old.
Kafka, Franz

18.
Youth should be a savings bank.
Swetchine, Anne Sophie

19.
It is all that the young can do for the old, to shock them and keep them up to date.
Shaw, George Bernard

20.
We cannot always build the future for our youth, but we can build our youth for the future.
Franklin D. Roosevelt

21.
Youth is the trustee of prosperity.
Disraeli, Benjamin

22.
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

23.
Youth would be an ideal state if it came a little later in life.
Herbert Henry Asquith

24.
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

25.
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

26.
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

27.
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

28.
Youth troubles over eternity, age grasps at a day and is satisfied to have even the day.
Gilmore, Dame Mary

29.
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

30.
Youth doesn't reason, it acts. The old man reasons and would like to make the others act in his place.
Picabia, Francis

31.
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

32.
It is the failing of youth not to be able to restrain its own violence.
Seneca

33.
You are only young once, and if you work it right, once is enough.
Lewis, Joe E.

34.
No wise man ever wished to be younger.
Jonathan Swift

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.
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

37.
A youth with his first cigar makes himself sick; a youth with his first girl makes everybody sick.
Little, Mary

38.
You can only be young once. But you can always be immature.
Dave Barry

39.
The good thing about being young is that you are not experienced enough to know you cannot possibly do the things you are doing.

40.
The young are permanently in a state resembling intoxication.
Aristotle

41.
There was no respect for youth when I was young, and now that I am old, there is no respect for age I missed it coming and going.
Priestley, J. B.

42.
The young do not know enough to be prudent, and therefore they attempt the impossible -- and achieve it, generation after generation.
Buck, Pearl S.

43.
Youth is something very new: twenty years ago no one mentioned it.
Coco Chanel

44.
The young, whether they know it or not, live on borrowed property.
Livingston, Richard W.

45.
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

46.
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

47.
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

48.
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

49.
On the neck of a young man sparkles no gem so gracious as enterprise.
Hafiz

50.
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
