Youth
Youth i not a time of life; it i a tate of mind; it i not a matter of roy cheek, red lip and upple knee; it i a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotion; it i the frehne of the deep pring of life.
Youth mean a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the love of eae. Thi often exit in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grow old merely by a number of year. We grow old by deerting our ideal.
Year may wrinkle the kin, but to give up enthuiam wrinkle the oul. Worry, fear, elf-ditrut bow the heart and turn the pring back to dut.
Whether 60 or 16, there i in every human being’ heart the lure of wonder, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’ next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there i a wirele tation: o long a it receive meage of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the Infinite, o long are you young.
When the aerial are down, and your pirit i covered with now of cynicim and the ice of peimim, then you are grown old, even at 20, but a long a your aerial are up, to catch wave of optimim, there i hope you may die young at 80.
青 春
青春不是年华，而是心境；青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，而是深沉意志，恢宏想象，炙热恋情；青春是生命深泉在涌流。WWw.hAOzuowEn.com
青春气贯长虹，勇锐盖过怯弱，进取压倒苟安。如此锐气，二十后生而有之，六旬男子则更多见。年岁有加，并非垂老，理想丢弃，方堕暮年。
岁月悠悠，衰微只及肌肤；热忱抛却，颓废必致灵魂。忧烦，惶恐，丧失自信，定使心灵扭曲，意气如灰。
无论年届花甲，拟或二八芳龄，心中皆有生命之欢乐，奇迹之诱惑，孩童般天真久盛不衰。人人心中皆有一台天线，只要你从天上人间接受美好、希望、欢乐、勇气和力量信号，你就青春永驻，风华常存。
一旦天线下降，锐气便被冰雪覆盖，玩世不恭、自暴自弃油然而生，即使年方二十，实已垂垂老矣；然则只要树起天线，捕捉乐观信号，你就有望在八十高龄告别尘寰时仍觉年轻。
