The ideas gained by men before they are twenty-five are practically the only ideas they shall have in their lives.

Ideas devour the ages as men are devoured by their passions. When man is cured, human nature will cure itself perhaps.
A young man must let his ideas grow, not be continually rooting them up to see how they are getting on.
Whenever ideas fail, men invent words.
It is inevitable that many ideas of the young mind will later have to give way to the hard realities of life.
Men's ideas are the most direct emanations of their material state.
Man never had an idea - man will never have an idea, except those supplied to him by his surroundings. Every idea in the world that man has came to him by nature.
Men are limited by the knowledge of their minds, the worth of their characters and the principles upon which they are building their lives.
Not only has this subject been long associated with the ideas of thinking men over the ages but its practical importance is attested to by the huge resources of men and material thrown into this type of work.
Young men preen. Old men scheme.
The ideas of an age are most abundant where they are not crowded by original ideas.
