Famous quotes containing the word youth:
“Advice you take from me comes to you crutched
Like a beggar youth zealous for old age.”

“Organize first for knowledge, first with the object of making us know ourselves as a nation, for we have to do that before we can be of value to other nations of the world and then organize to accomplish the things that you decide to want. And ... don’t make decisions with the interest of youth alone before you. Make your decisions because they are good for the nation as a whole.”
—Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)
“I loathe that I did love,
In youth that I thought sweet;”
