Youth

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
Youth Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Youth

1.
Youth is ever apt to judge in haste, and lose the medium in the wild extreme.
Hill, Aaron

2.
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

3.
Well, youth is the period of assumed personalities and disguises. It is the time of the sincerely insincere.
Pritchett, V. S.

4.
It is the failing of youth not to be able to restrain its own violence.
Seneca

5.
It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth. [Lamentations 3:27]
Bible

6.
No wise man ever wished to be younger.
Jonathan Swift

7.
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

8.
The wine of youth does not always clear with advancing years; sometimes it grows turbid.
Jung, Carl

9.
Youth today must be strong, unafraid, and a better taxpayer than its father.
Wade, H. V.

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

12.
Youth is a quality, not a matter of circumstances.
Wright, Frank Lloyd

13.
Youth is the best time to be rich, and the best time to be poor.
Euripides

14.
What is youth except a man or a woman before it is ready or fit to be seen.
Waugh, Evelyn

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.
Youth has become a class.
Vadim, Roger

17.
The good thing about being young is that you are not experienced enough to know you cannot possibly do the things you are doing.

18.
It is an illusion that youth is happy, an illusion of those who has lost it.
Maugham, W. Somerset

19.
Age is foolish and forgetful when it underestimates youth.
J. K. Rowling

20.
Don't laugh at youth for his affectations; he is only trying on one face after another to find his own.
Smith, Logan Pearsall

21.
Young men wish; love, money and health. One day, they'll say; health, money and love.
Geraldy, Paul

22.
After all, life hasn't much to offer except youth and I suppose for older people the love of youth in others.

23.
Youth is happy because it has the ability to see beauty. Anyone who keeps the ability to see beauty never grows old.
Kafka, Franz

24.
Even the youngest of us may be wrong sometimes.
Shaw, George Bernard

25.
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

26.
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

27.
The young, whether they know it or not, live on borrowed property.
Livingston, Richard W.

28.
We are none of us infallible--not even the youngest of us.
W. H. Thompson

29.
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

30.
The young do not know enough to be prudent, and therefore they attempt the impossible -- and achieve it, generation after generation.
Buck, Pearl S.

31.
Youth is unduly busy with pampering the outer person.
Horace

32.
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

33.
Youth is the trustee of prosperity.
Disraeli, Benjamin

34.
Youth, which is forgiven everything, forgives itself nothing: age, which forgives itself everything, is forgiven nothing.
George Bernard Shaw

35.
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

36.
Time misspent in youth is sometimes all the freedom one ever has.
Brookner, Anita

37.
Like a kite cut from the string, lightly the soul of my youth has taken flight
Takuboku, Ishikawa

38.
Youth covets; let not this covetousness seduce you.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von

39.
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

40.
If youth be a defect, it is one that we outgrow only too soon.
Lowell, James Russell

41.
On the neck of a young man sparkles no gem so gracious as enterprise.
Hafiz

42.
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

43.
Young people need models, not critics...
Wooden, John

44.
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.

45.
In youth we learn; in age we understand.
Marie Ebner von Eschenbach

46.
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

47.
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

48.
The young feel tired at the end of an action, the old at the beginning.
Eliot, T. S.

49.
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

50.
The passions of the young are vices in the old.
Joubert, Joseph
