Letter "Y" » Youth
"Young men soon give and soon forget affronts;
Old age is slow in both."
Author: Joseph Addison
About: Youth
"Youth dreams a bliss on this side of death.
It dreams a rest, if not more deep,
More grateful than this marble sleep;
It hears a voice within it tell:
Calm's not life's crown, though calm is well.
'Tis all perhaps which man acquires,
But 'tis not what our youth desires."
Author: Matthew Arnold
About: Youth
"Young men are fitter to invent than to judge; fitter for
execution than for counsel; and fitter for new projects than for
settled business."
Author: Francis Bacon
About: Youth
"I was between
A man and a boy, A hobble-de-hoy,
A fat, little, punchy concern of sixteen."
Author: Richard Harris Barham
About: Youth
"Smiling always with a never fading serenity of countenance, and
flourishing in an immortal youth."
Author: Isaac Barrow
About: Youth
"Our youth we can have but to-day;
We may always find time to grow old."
Author: Anthony Berkeley (A.B. Cox) (used pseudonym Francis Iles)
About: Youth
"Young fellows will be young fellows."
Author: Isaac Bickerstaff
About: Youth
"They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun, and in the morning,
We will remember them."
Author: Laurence Binyon
About: Youth
"Blow out, you bugles, over the rich Dead!
There's none of these so lonely and poor of old,
But, dying, has made us rarer gifts than gold.
These laid the world away: poured out the red
Sweet wine of youth; gave up the years to be
Of work and joy, and that unhoped serene
That men call age, and those who would have been
Their sons, they gave their immortality."
Author: Rupert Brooke
About: Youth
"Every street has two sides, the shady side and the sunny. When
two men shake hands and part, mark which of the two takes the
sunny side; he will be the younger man of the two."
Author: Edward George Earle Lytton Bulwer-Lytton, first Baron Lytton
