Youth is not a period of time.
Wednesday, July 10, 2013
Youth is not a period of time. It is a state of mind, a
result of the will, a quality of the imagination, a victory of courage
over timidity, of the taste for adventure over the love of comfort. A
man doesn’t grow old because he has lived a certain number of years. A
man grows old when he deserts his ideal. the years may wrinkle his
skin, but deserting his ideal wrinkles his soul. Preoccupations, fears,
doubts, and despair are the enemies which slowly bow us towards earth
and turn us to dust before death.
You
will remain young as long as you are open to what is beautiful, good,
and great; receptive to the messages of other men and women, of nature
and God. If one day you should become bitter, pessimistic and gnawed by
despair, may God has mercy on your old man’s soul.”
