Robert Henri
“Be game--take a chance--don't hide behind veils and veils of discretion... Go forward with what you have to say, expressing things as you see them. You are new evidence, fresh and young. Your work, the spirit of youth, you are the progress of human evolution. If age dulls you it will be time enough then to be ponderous and heavy--or quit. It takes a tremendous amount of courage to be young, to continue growing--not to settle and accept.”
Robert Henri, The Art Spirit

Alexia D. Miller
“His father often mentioned young and old. He'd said it was to remind himself to put things into perspective. To remember that he was starting to age. His black curly hair, which he passed on, had begun to gray Ironically, his mustache had beaten his hair and beard to it, losing all of its black sheen in favor of silver. Even his eyes seemed a little less blue as the days went on.

Even though he knew his father was aging, in moments like those, as he smiled showing him a photograph of a bright light in the shape of a person, he often thought his father was younger. He could look past the slight wrinkle of his skin and the color of his veins that he couldn't see a year before.”
Alexia D. Miller, Crystal Storm: Battleground

Graham Greene
“I made many economies in my youth and they were fairly painless because the young do not particularly care for luxury. They have other interests than spending and can make love satisfactorily on a Coca-Cola, a drink which is nauseating in age. They have little idea of real pleasure: even their love-making is apt to be hurried and incomplete. Luckily in middle age pleasure begins, pleasure in love, in wine, in food. Only the taste for poetry flags a little, but I would have always gladly lost my taste for the sonnets of Wordsworth [...] if I could have bettered my palate for wine. Love-making too provides as a rule more prolonged and varied pleasure after forty-five. Aretino is not a writer for the young.”
Graham Greene, Travels with My Aunt

“Wise men never grow up, because the spirit of youthfulness is a bed fellow of optimism that is the only reality in disruptive business models, machine learning, invasion of digitization or acute family turblance.”
Qamar Rafiq

B.S. Murthy
“Youth is the mirror that tends us to the reality of our looks. The reflections of our visages that insensibly get implanted in our subconscious lend shape to our psyche to define the course of our life.”
B.S. Murthy, Crossing the Mirage - Passing through Youth

“You're never too old to be young.”
Charles F Glassman

Giulia Nepote
“Sarà che siamo giovani. Tutti si aspettano da noi che ci buttiamo in una folle danza sfrenata e noi lo facciamo. Può sembrare stupido, ma è così. Sappiamo tutti che questo è il nostro momento per fare qualcosa di stupido, di folle, di pericoloso. Sentiamo sulla pelle il ticchettare dell'orologio che ci urla che abbiamo solo pochi anni ancora per lasciarci andare alla vita. Poi arriveranno i doveri, le responsabilità. Una volta che ci avranno raggiunti non potremo più essere pazzi. Perciò è questo il momento di esserlo”
Giulia Nepote, Una folle danza sfrenata

Elizabeth Gilbert, City of Girls

Oscar Wilde
“Ah! realise your youth while you have it. Don't squander the gold of your days, listening to the tedious, trying to improve the hopeless failure, or giving away your life to the ignorant, the common, and the vulgar. These are the sickly aims, the false ideals, of our age. Live! Live the wonderful life that is in you! Let nothing be lost upon you. Be always searching for new sensations. Be afraid of nothing.”
Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Doran Gray
