“But [your crime] will be there, one hundred times denied, always there, dragging itself behind you. Then you will finally know that you have committed your life with one throw of the die, once and for all, and there is nothing you can do but tug our crime along until your death. Such is the law, just and unjust, of repentance. Then we will see what will become of your young pride.” KnowsLawYoungDiesCan DoBehindsCrimeYouthPrideHundredCommittedPunishmentRepentanceDeniedUnjustBehind You Author:Jean-Paul Sartre
“I don't suppose there's a man going, as possesses the fondness for youth that I do. There's youth to the amount of eight hundredpound a-year, at Dotheboys Hall at this present time.

“O youth.......be assured that knowledge alone does not strengthen the hand......Though a man read a hundred thousand scientific questions and understood them or learned them, but did not work with them---They do not benefit him except by working.....Knowledge is the tree, and working is its fruit; and though you studied a hundred years and assembled a thousand books, you would not be prepared for the mercy of Allah the Exalted except by working.” MenYearsDoeBookHandsTreeYouthThousandBenefitsUnderstoodHundredMercyPreparedFruitBe PreparedAssuredExalted Author:Al-Ghazali
“Each of us can be a leader. We need to remember that the mantle of leadership is not the cloak of comfort, but the robe of responsibility. Perhaps our service is to youth. If so, I caution: 'Youth needs fewer critics and more models.' One hundred years from now it will not matter what kind of a car we drove, what kind of a house we lived in, how much we had in the bank account, nor what our clothes looked like. But the world may be a little better because we were important in the life of a boy or a girl.” IfsWorldNeedsYearsKindMayLittlesImportantMatterRememberGirlHouseResponsibilityLeaderBoysCarYouthComfortClothesModelsHundredAccountsCriticsFewerCautionCloaksRobesBank Accounts Author:Thomas S.

“On the river path in Boston beauty was most expressed as youth and intelligence. That made sense; sixty degree-giving institutions, some three hundred thousand students; that meant at least one hundred fifty thousand more nubile young women than demographics would ordinarily suggest. Maybe that was why young men stayed in Boston when their college years were over, maybe that explained why they were so intellectually hyperactive, so frustrated, so alcoholic, such terrible drivers.” MenGivingYearsMadeYoungThreePathYouthStudentsCollegeTerribleThousandDegreesHundredRiversInstitutionsYoung ManFiftyDriversSixtyFrustratedYoung WomenBostonAlcoholicsDemographicsCollege Years Author:Kim Stanley Robinson

“The only true voyage, the only bath in the Fountain of Youth, would be not to visit strange lands but to possess other eyes, to see the universe through the eyes of another, of a hundred others, to see the hundred universes that each of them sees, that each of them is; and this we do [with great artists]; with artists like these we do really fly from star to star.” Would BeEyeArtistUniverseStarsLandYouthStrangeHundredFountainBathsVoyagesGreat ArtistThrough The EyesFountain Of Youth Book:The captive, The fugitive Source: The captive, The fugitive
“Do you know, Mother, that Haj Salem was buried alive in his home? Does he tell you stories in heaven now? I wish I had had a chance to meet him. To see his toothless grin and touch his leathery skin. To beg him, as you did in your youth, for a story from our Palestine. He was over one hundred years old, Mother. To have lived so long, only to be crushed to death by a bulldozer.
