Famous quotes containing the word youth:

    “An English family consists of a few persons, who, from youth to age, are found revolving within a few feet of each other, as if tied by some invisible ligature, tense as that cartilage which we have seen attaching the two Siamese.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
