I've never understood why people consider youth a time of freedom and joy. It's probably because they have forgotten their own.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It is an illusion that youth is happy, an illusion of those who have lost it.
Well, youth is the period of assumed personalities and disguises. It is the time of the sincerely insincere.
Youth is to all the glad season of life; but often only by what it hopes, not by what it attains, or what it escapes.
There's a freedom to being young that is harder to come by as time goes on.
Youth is something I never wanna take for granted. I just want to smile and live life.
Like children, adolescents need a framework. Otherwise they can't cope. When someone has unlimited freedom, it means there's nobody who cares what they're doing.
Youth is seen as everything. You don't know anything when you're young. It's great being older, just having a more balanced perspective. I wake up and realise that what seemed to be important last year no longer is. I'm increasingly grateful for every day.
Youth is the spirit of adventure and awakening. It is a time of physical emerging when the body attains the vigor and good health that may ignore the caution of temperance. Youth is a period of timelessness when the horizons of age seem too distant to be noticed.
Time misspent in youth is sometimes all the freedom one ever has.
Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.
