The elastic heart of youth cannot be compressed into one constrained shape long at a time.
No one who is young is ever going to be old.
Who dies in youth and vigour, dies the best.
You look boldly ahead; isn't it only that you don't see or divine anything terrible in the future; because life is still hidden from your young eyes.
- Youth, my good friend, you certainly require
- When foes in battle round you press,
- When a fair maid, her heart on fire,
- Hangs on your neck with fond caress,
- When from afar, the victor's crown,
- Allures you in the race to run;
- Or when in revelry you drown
- Your sense, the whirling dance being done.
- Thou know’st the o’er-eager vehemence of youth,
- How quick in temper, and in judgement weak.
There is something so amiable in the prejudices of a young mind, that one is sorry to see them give way to the reception of more general opinions.
Youth's a stuff will not endure.
- My salad days,
- When I was green in judgment.
- He wears the rose
- Of youth upon him.
The days of my youth, as I look back on them, seem to fly away from me in a flurry of pale repetitive scraps like those morning snow storms of used tissue paper that a train passenger sees whirling in the wake of the observation car.
