Famous quotes containing the word young:
“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, thats news. If they arent, thats news too.”
—Kenneth Rexroth (19051982)
“... everyone young going down the long slide
To happiness, endlessly.”
—Philip Larkin (19221986)
“Because the young child feels with such intensity, he experiences sorrows that seem inconsolable and losses that feel unbearable. A precious toy gets broken or a good-bye cannot be endured. When this happens, words like sad or disappointed seem a travesty because they cannot possibly capture the enormity of the childs loss. He needs a loving adult presence to support him in his pain but he does not want to be talked out of it.”
—Alicia F. Lieberman (20th century)
