The mirror of my youth will never lie.
BARBARA O'SULLIVAN
"The Mirror of My Youth", The Steel Mirror: Sonnets and Poems
All of us who are worth anything spend our manhood in unlearning the follies, or expiating the mistakes of our youth.
PERCY BYSSHE SHELLEY
letter to John Gisborne, Nov. 16, 1819
When you're young, you think you can handle anything. By the time you find out otherwise, it's already too late. You got a stocking wrapped around your neck.
HARUKI MURAKAMI

The secret of life is then that this fine youthful spirit should never be lost.

Eliza Cook's Journal
I am glad it cannot happen twice, the fever of first love. For it is a fever, and a burden, too, whatever the poets may say.

Try to hold on to youth and it mocks you while it sprints away.
FRANK HERBERT
Chapterhouse: Dune
Maiden, that read'st this simple rhyme,
Enjoy thy youth, it will not stay;
Enjoy the fragrance of thy prime,
For oh, it is not always May!
HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW
"It Is Not Always May"
So wise so young, they say, do never live long.
WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE
Richard III
A man that is young in years, may be old in hours, if he have lost no time.
FRANCIS BACON
"Of Youth And Age", The Essays or Counsels, Civil and Moral
There is a very prevalent tenet with youth, that good company is every thing desirable, and that bad is even better than none.
NORMAN MACDONALD
Maxims and Moral Reflections
In the central place of your heart there is a wireless station. So long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, grandeur, courage, and power from the earth, from men and from the Infinite--so long are you young. When the wires are all down and the central places of your heart are covered with the snows of pessimism and the ice of cynicism, then are you grown old, indeed!
SAMUEL ULLMAN
"Youth", The Silver Treasury, Prose and Verse for Every Mood
Youth is not a time of life--it is a state of mind. It is not a matter of red cheeks, red lips and supple knees. It is a temper of the will; a quality of the imagination; a vigor of the emotions; it is a freshness of the deep springs of life. Youth means a tempermental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over a life of ease. This often exists in a man of fifty, more than in a boy of twenty. Nobody grows old by merely living a number of years; people grow old by deserting their ideals.
SAMUEL ULLMAN
"Youth", The Silver Treasury, Prose and Verse for Every Mood
In the days of thy youth seek to obtain that which shall compensate the losses of thy old age.
LEONARDO DA VINCI
Thoughts on Art and Life
Life goes on. Get over it. You're still young. It'll get better. Blah, Blah, Blah.
DAVID LEVITHAN
Marly's Ghost
Kings live in Palaces, and Pigs in sties,
And youth in Expectation. Youth is wise.
