“Oh ignorant youth, the world is not a joyous place.”
“Today will be joyous, for the beauty slamming against my face is unwilling to be ignored.”
“We ran on the fuel of youth and hormones and ignorant arrogance, imagining we had the whole world and the workings thereof figured out.”
“To be joyous is to be a madman in a world of sad ghosts.”
“To fulfil the dreams of one's youth; that is the best that can happen to a man. No worldly success can take the place of that.”
“If youth were not ignorant and timid, civilization would be impossible.”
