Youth

A youth with his first cigar makes himself sick; a youth with his first girl makes everybody sick.

Youth Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Youth

1.
Idle youth, enslaved to everything; by being too sensitive I have wasted my life.
Rimbaud, Arthur

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

4.
If youth but had the knowledge and old age the strength.
Proverb, French

5.
Youth should be a savings bank.
Swetchine, Anne Sophie

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.
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

8.
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

9.
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

10.
Youth is ever apt to judge in haste, and lose the medium in the wild extreme.
Hill, Aaron

11.
Trouble is, kids feel they have to shock their elders and each generation grows up into something harder to shock.
Lindsey, Ben

12.
Youth is the trustee of prosperity.
Disraeli, Benjamin

13.
Those whom the gods love grow young.
Wilde, Oscar

14.
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.

15.
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

16.
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

17.
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

18.
Youth has no age.
Picasso, Pablo

19.
Don't laugh at youth for his affectations; he is only trying on one face after another to find his own.
Smith, Logan Pearsall

20.
The dead might as well try to speak to the living as the old to the young.
Willa Cather

21.
You are only young once, and if you work it right, once is enough.
Lewis, Joe E.

22.
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

23.
In youth we learn; in age we understand.
Marie Ebner von Eschenbach

24.
Youth lives on hope, old age on memories.
Proverb, French

25.
Youth troubles over eternity, age grasps at a day and is satisfied to have even the day.
Gilmore, Dame Mary

26.
The young are permanently in a state resembling intoxication.
Aristotle

27.
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

28.
Youth, with swift feet, walks onward in the way; the land of joy lies all before his eyes.
Bulwer-Lytton, Edward G.

29.
If youth but knew; if age but could.
Estienne, Henri

30.
The hatred of the youth culture for adult society is not a disinterested judgment but a terror-ridden refusal to be hooked into the, if you will, ecological chain of breathing, growing, and dying. It is the demand, in other words, to remain children.
Decter, Midge

31.
There's nothing wrong with teenagers that reasoning with them won't aggravate.
Bumper Sticker

32.
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

33.
Youth is a quality, not a matter of circumstances.
Wright, Frank Lloyd

34.
Young men wish; love, money and health. One day, they'll say; health, money and love.
Geraldy, Paul

35.
I'm youth, I'm joy, I'm a little bird that has broken out of the egg.
James M. Barrie

36.
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

37.
The good thing about being young is that you are not experienced enough to know you cannot possibly do the things you are doing.

38.
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

39.
Youth is unduly busy with pampering the outer person.
Horace

40.
Ask the young. They know everything.
Joubert, Joseph

41.
It is the failing of youth not to be able to restrain its own violence.
Seneca

42.
Youth doesn't reason, it acts. The old man reasons and would like to make the others act in his place.
Picabia, Francis

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

45.
Except for an occasional heart attack I feel as young as I ever did.
Benchley, Robert

46.
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

47.
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

48.
Time misspent in youth is sometimes all the freedom one ever has.
Brookner, Anita

49.
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

50.
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
