Youth, which is forgiven everything, forgives itself nothing: age, which forgives itself everything, is forgiven nothing.

George Bernard Shaw

The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher esteem those who think alike than those who think differently.

We have some salt of our youth in us.

Dr. Robert H. Goddard

The secret of eternal youth is arrested development.

Alice Roosevelt Longworth

What a mistake to suppose that the passions are strongest in youth! The passions are not stronger, but the control over them is weaker! They are more easily excited, they are more violent and apparent; but they have less energy, less durability, less intense and concentrated power than in the maturer life.

Edward G. Bulwer lytton

I think I don't regret a single 'excess' of my responsive youth-I only regret, in my chilled age, certain occasions and possibilities I didn't embrace.

Henry James

A young man's ambition is to get along in the world and make a place for himself-half your life goes that way, till you're 45 or 50. Then, if you're lucky, you make terms with life, you get released.

Robert Penn Warren

Youth is ever apt to judge in haste, and lose the medium in the wild extreme.

Aaron Hill

In youth the days are short and the years are long. In old age the years are short and day's long.

Pope Paul Vi

It is an illusion that youth is happy, an illusion of those who have lost it; but the young know they are wretched for they are full of the truthless ideal which have been instilled into them, and each time they come in contact with the real, they are bruised and wounded.

W. Somerset Maugham

We have a powerful potential in out youth, and we must have the courage to change old ideas and practices so that we may direct their power toward good ends.

Mary Mcleod Bethune

The young know how truly difficult and dreadful youth can be. Their youth is wasted on everyone else, that's the horror. The young have no authority, no respect.

Anne Rice

Youth will be served, every dog has his day, and mine has been a fine one.

George Borrow

In youth we learn; in age we understand.

Marie Ebner von Eschenbach

Boyhood, like measles, is one of those complaints which a man should catch young and have done with, for when it comes in middle life it is apt to be serious.

P. G. Wodehouse

You can only be young once. But you can always be immature.

Dave Barry

I'm youth, I'm joy, I'm a little bird that has broken out of the egg.

One of the great things about young people is that they do question, that they do care deeply about justice, and they they have open minds.

Zack De La Rocha

Youth is a wonderful thing. What a crime to waste it on children.

George Bernard Shaw

Youth is easily deceived because it is quick to hope.

Aristotle

Young people are in a condition like permanent intoxication, because youth is sweet and they are growing.

Betty Friedan

To get back my youth I would do anything in the world, except take exercise, get up early, or be respectable.

Oscar Wilde

No instance exists of a person's writing two languages perfectly. That will always appear to be his native language which was most familiar to him in his youth.

Thomas Jefferson

Praise youth and it will prosper.

Irish Proverb

There's nothing that keeps its youth, So far as I know, but a tree and truth.

Oliver Wendell Holmes

I would there were no age between sixteen and three-and-twenty, or that youth would sleep out the rest, for there is nothing in the between but getting wenches with child, wronging the ancientry, stealing, fighting.

William Shakespeare

Home-keeping youth have ever homely wits.

William Shakespeare

The deepest definition of youth is life as yet untouched by tragedy.

Alfred North Whitehead

A youth is to be regarded with respect. How do you know that his future will not be equal to our present?

Confucius

I view the tea-drinking as a destroyer of health, an enfeebler of the frome, an engender of effeminacy and laziness, a debaucher of youth and maker of misery for old age.

William Cobbett

Youth isn't always all it's touted to be.

Lawana Blackwell

Youth is a quality, not a matter of circumstances.

Frank Lloyd Wright

He alone, who owns the youth, gains the future.

Adolf Hitler

We have programs for youth.

Bob Keevil

Too many youth have been injured in incidents with these techniques. While these holds may be appropriate for an adult population, experience has shown us that it is too easy to injure a young person when applying these holds. Physical restraint should be applied only to prevent a youth from hurting himself or others.

Anthony Schembri

Creativity is not merely the innocent spontaneity of our youth and childhood; it must also be married to the passion of the adult human being, which is a passion to live beyond one's death.

Dr. Rollo May

Experience is a revelation in the light of which we renounce our errors of youth for those of age.

Ambrose Bierce

We want everybody to come. It's a wonderful place to bring your family or your youth group. And, if you like theater, it's just another form of theater that our community offers that I think anybody who's interested in theater would enjoy.

Scarlett Knight

Representing Team SA at the Commonwealth Games creates the opportunity for athletes to establish themselves as household names and role models to the communities back home, and serve as an inspiration to the youth, who will strive to follow in their footsteps.

Moss Mashishi

Because of my significant youth over these guys, I'm sticking around a couple more years.

Mark Lowe

This award goes to the best of the best. It's the people that not only devote a countless amount of hours for Scouting, but is also a recognition for their service to the community and ... to youth outside of Scouting.

Marcal Young

I got into coming to the Carmel Youth Center because I heard they were doing recordings. Kim just happened to hear me singing around here, and he liked what he heard. A few months later, we got this record done.

Sam Skemp

I think our community programs have been extraordinary. Our after-school and summer programs have been very successful, and they really help grow the game in our communities. We've been blessed with great instructors, and I think that in teaching tennis to our youth, we're also promoting education, developing citizenship and building future friendships and relationships.

Helen Moser Petersen

This team exceeded my expectations of what I thought we'd be able to do this year. Tonight we didn't shoot the ball with confidence, and we didn't take care of some of the most basic things you need to take care of in playoff basketball. That's what happens with youth. You could tell that we'd never been this close before.

Dirk Hanson

I have never known a man who was sensual in his youth, who was high-minded when old.

Charles Sumner

Idle youth, enslaved to everything; by being too sensitive I have wasted my life.

Arthur Rimbaud

If flavor attracts youth, they're going to put flavors in their products.

Lusy Garcia

A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth. Instead of its bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay, it would give us hopes of eternal youth in a better world.

Maurice Chevalier

When I can look life in the eyes, grown calm and very coldly wise, life will have given me the truth, and taken in exchange - my youth.

Sara Teasdale

Our youth deserve to know the truth about homosexuality - that people can choose to overcome same-sex attractions and that acting on those attractions results in devastating physical, mental and spiritual consequences.

Mat Staver

There is a place in God's sun for the youth 'farthest down' who has the vision, the determination, and the courage to reach it.

Mary Mcleod Bethune

I speak for a lot of church groups, youth groups, schools, colleges and do personal appearances. I've done conventions and trade shows. A lot of different little hats.

Donna Douglas

The woman said she arrived in Cancun on December 27 and that day met a man named Brad staying at a Cancun youth hostel. He later told her his name was Mike.

Charles Mathews

If youth is a defect, it is one we outgrow too soon.

Robert Lowell

It's been a wonderful two years playing together, ... He's young and enthusiastic, and celebrates with good intensity. His youth reinvigorated me.

Karch Kiraly

This year's crop of North Texas ODP players boasts some of the best youth talent in the country. They have a number of Regional and National Team players on that squad. It should be a very good match for our team.

Jaime Frias

We're looking for people who have the inclination and the time to learn about horticulture from experts, then go out into the community to seek the resources they need to teach gardening and landscaping to school kids, youth organizations, civic groups, city beautification efforts, or anybody that calls into our office wanting gardening or landscaping advice.

Dr. Enrique Perez

We wanted to include young people in the competition and they're welcome to call and register and then bring their own grills Saturday. We'll have a separate judge for the youth and adult divisions.

Stan Windham

It is hard to sit in silence, to watch one's youth wash away. New Orleans is my essence, my soul, my muse, and I can only dream that one day she will recapture her glory.

Harry Connick, Jr.

These young boys are going to be middle-aged men. They're going to pay for his life with their youth.

Lindsay Roberts

If we touched one or two students, we hopefully made a difference. I feel very fortunate to be in a community that works so hard to make a difference for our youth.

Teri Harr

We've gone way too far with the First Amendment. Everybody hangs their hat onto that - the First Amendment. At some point we have to look at what's best for youth.

Fred Harran

We want to have a better progression of distances. Maybe the Holy Bull will be run at a mile and the Fountain of Youth and Florida Derby are run at 11/8 mile. And maybe, on the same day as the Holy Bull, there's a 61/2-furlong [companion] stakes and on Fountain of Youth day there's a 71/2-furlong stakes.

Scott Savin

There also are plenty of volunteer opportunities in youth services, circulation, adult and reference services, and technical processing.

Pamela Boddy

What greater or better gift can we offer the republic than to teach and instruct our youth?

Cicero

Charleston is very fortunate to have a significant number of working artists located in the community. We strive to be philanthropic, donating our art to numerous local charity events, and many of us open our studios and provide demonstrations to youth groups.

Lorelei Sims

Probably the happiest period in life most frequently is in middle age, when the eager passions of youth are cooled, and the infirmities of age not yet begun; as we see that the shadows, which are at morning and evening so large, almost entirely disappear at midday.

Thomas Arnold

Once again, the remarkable entries received show that Canadian youth are moved by the challenges faced by the developing world. By participating in this contest, Canadian youth have taken a first step in getting involved in the fight against poverty and inequality around the world.

Aileen Carroll

That second title means a lot. The kids have worked hard to get the program to succeed. Now we've got some great youth programs coming up. We knew Greenwood was very good. Their guards are tough and they shoot the ball well. We had to match their intensity.

Dave Macarthur

The pride of youth is in strength and beauty, the pride of old age is in discretion.

Democritus

America is the civilization of people engaged in transforming themselves. In the past, the stars of the performance were the pioneer and the immigrant. Today, it is youth and the Black.

Harold Rosenberg

All year long I was worried about if we were gonna go out and show our youth. We did that a little bit today at the start, but we showed a lot of maturity to get in that hole and dig ourselves out. I believe we really matured as a team today.

Hutton Jones

The more our foreign policy is involved in killing innocent civilians, the more the youth will want an explanation, and if they are not getting that, then the kickback will be sometimes you will get that one-off person - like they did in London - who takes matters into their own hands.

Chaaban Omran

We will have speakers each night and we'll deal with the youth about their behavior, education, character and conduct at church, just talking with them and encouraging them.

Marcus Mann

The soul of America weeps for the dead youth of this illegal and immoral war. It is time to step up and be heard.

Wayne Kramer

The Youth Baseball Academy will serve as a sanctuary for kids interested not only in how the game is played but how the game can be a positive and productive part of their lives. The Compton academy is part of Major League Baseball's Urban Youth Initiative, which is an ambitious and important project that is designed to grow the game and to help inner city kids make better lives for themselves.

Jimmie Lee Solomon

Youth condemns; maturity condones.

Amy Lowell

And a Treasury working paper in 2004 found that a 69% increase in the minimum wage for 18 and 19 year olds in 2001 and a 41% increase in the minimum wage for 16 and 17 year-olds over a two year period had no adverse effects on youth employment or hours worked. In fact hours of work increased for 16-17 year olds relative to other age groups.

Ross Wilson

She was not a resistance fighter, yet she was skeptical of socialism; but then she went ahead and joined the Communist youth party. She's not open about her life's choices.

Gerd Langguth

A truly great book should be read in youth, again in maturity and once more in old age, as a fine building should be seen by morning light, at noon and by moonlight.

Robertson Davies

I think this is a pretty talented team. We've got a nice combination of youth and veterans. We've just got to figure out why this hasn't happened yet.

Jim Leyland

My only regret about being gay is that I repressed it for so long. I surrendered my youth to the people I feared when I could have been out there loving someone. Don't make that mistake yourself. Life's too damn short.

Armistead Maupin

You could tell there were a lot of nerves and a lot of youth out there. But at the same time, there's no lack of passion for the game. Our girls hung in there.

Mike Takayama

We're even showing Crash, a modern-day look at all the diverse cultures and how they (interact) ? that's for the youth, the younger folks, so to speak.

Cecil Adams

There is nothing humorous about steroid abuse. I would think that the California Milk Processor Board and their advertising agency would know better regarding an issue that threatens America's youth.

Tim Brosnan

Youth are our future and the future of hunting and fishing. It is important that we pass down to them the importance of good hunting and fishing ethics and quality management.

Bruce Compton

Never suffer youth to be an excuse for inadequacy, nor age and fame to be an excuse for indolence.

Benjamin Haydon

A Glimmer of Hope is proud to partner with Austin Can! Academy in providing opportunities for the area's at-risk youth. Our organizations share the same hopes, goals and aspirations in serving area youth in need of a helping hand.

David Porter

Happy is he who has laid up in his youth, and held fast in all fortune, a genuine and passionate love for reading.

Rufus Choate

That's one of the reasons we're starting the league, ... One, to increase the popularity in gymnastics. Down the line, we want to put some organizations together for the inner city youth. There's so much talent that I saw in the inner city.

Patricia Golden

It shows how good the youth systems and coaching have been at Forest and West Ham because Martin Jol has taken me, Jermaine Jenas and Andy Reid from Forest and also has Jermain Defoe and Michael Carrick, who came from West Ham.

Michael Dawson

(There's) a lot of pride in what youth hockey does; it makes our job that much easier at the high school level.

Pat Mcdonald

The Youth Volunteer Corps has helped us for about five years and we really depend on them to tackle big, physical projects.

Mary Abbott

We are looking for volunteers to help in a number of areas, both during the Relay and in the months before the event. This is an excellent opportunity for youth to fulfill a community service project for school and church as well as contributing to the cause of finding a cure for cancer.

Melinda Schwartz

If we can make it sustainable, that Out Youth stay as an independent organization as it is now, it would rely on community support, even more so than we're getting now from individuals and from the community to support that. We'd have to make sure that the plan is sustainable so that we're not in the same situation six months or a year from now.

Bryant Hilton

There are a lot of uneducated youth in our community. We plan to address the issues with our school. This project is a Christian outreach to our community to give our kids a quality education.

Dr. Larry Gillam

Arkadelphia public schools ensure that homeless children and youth have equal access to the same free appropriate education, including public preschool education, as provided to other children and youth.

Virginia Anderson

I'm struggling at the end to get out of the valley of hectoring youth, journalistic middle age, imposture, moneymaking, public relations, bad writing, mental confusion.

Stephen Spender

Andrew is a very good hockey player. I've had the privilege of coaching him since he was six-years-old with Pawtucket Youth Hockey. It's been enjoyable to watch him grow.

Joe Mello

I'm not saying I support what they do, but it was very important to learn why they do what they do, to take readers and students into their point of view to better understand the conditions that lead youth into gangs.

Tim Delaney

When you have a kid of that caliber, the youth look up to him and watch him. He's such a good kid in the classroom, on the street ... wherever he goes.

Bob Veitch

The heads of strong old age are beautiful beyond all grace of youth.

Robinson Jeffers

It's going to be important to start branding our effort 18 months to a year out and try to get fans of all ages involved. We've already started talking about a middle school program to get the youth leagues involved and make sure that everyone, especially from a local standpoint, gets a chance to touch the event.

Rob Higgins

I thought that sounded pretty cool. Nothing like this has ever been done in Henry County, and we think it's going to be a great event for our youth.

Mark Combs

The church has been promoting youth activities as well as looking into providing a study-assistance program for potential ministers who may come from Japan and have difficulty in communicating with the people here -- language-wise and culturally.

Masue Ando

This celebrates all the great things youth do instead of the negative things you sometimes hear about.

Karen Lee

That helps us with our youth clients as well.

Jim Kelly

It has been a life-long pursuit for me, ... Running is an affair of youth. It helps you through adolescence and, for me of course, at a certain point it opened doors. I met people, and traveled. Of course it can make life more exciting and fulfilling.

Roger Bannister

ENTHUSIASM, n. A distemper of youth, curable by small doses of repentance in connection with outward applications of experience. Byron, who recovered long enough to call it 'entuzy-muzy,' had a relapse, which carried him off -- to Missolonghi.

Ambrose Bierce

The city needs more athletic fields, for both adults as well as youth leagues.

Suzette Cooke

Well, you know, there was the most enormous youth rebellion during the '30s. There was the Peace Pledge Union, which supposedly involved the cream of British youth. They thought wars were ridiculous and said just what everybody says today. They said they would not fight in any war.

John Knowles

The youth population in this area has just exploded. The need is now.

Valerie Hill

We preach being ahead in counts. It's frustrating, that every day in practice we hit our spots, then we come out here, and there's no transfer. Some of that is youth, but we have to be able to do it between the white lines.

Karen Mullins

In college, I decided to listen to instrumentalists, because I knew it would help me shape what my personal style was, ... I love Donald Fagan. Steely Dan is a part of the fabric of my youth. I grew up with songs like 'FM' and 'Peg.' All those songs are gonna last forever.

Lalah Hathaway

We are very excited about this camp because there is nothing in the area for youth to stay to have orchestral, chamber and solo experiences. Three camp scholarships will be available.

Annette Condeluci

Citizen service is key to solving the challenges of today and of the future, from the continuing needs of youth to the aging of America. These public servants are role models for millions of Americans in their 'day jobs,' and we hope they will also serve as role models in their commitment to giving back to their communities.

David Eisner

Youth is when you're allowed to stay up late on New Year's Eve. Middle age is when you're forced to.

Bill Vaughn

We've been very encouraged by the community's response to the Walk On! Challenge. Childhood obesity is a serious matter, and we believe Walk On! is a great first step to actively engaging our youth.

Richard Boals

They were trying so hard, they were forcing things. The pressure and youth were a factor and they were trying to get it all back in a hurry and that caused more problems.

Ricky Ward

Gender has become part of the defining way that youth organise themselves and rebel against adults.

Caitlin Ryan

Whatever happened to anyone else could happen to you and to me - And the end of my youth was the possible truth that it all happens randomly.

Indigo Girls

Very probably this was an idealistic youth who took things too far.

Steve James

We have a nice mix of experience and youth returning this year.

Chuck Huggins

Our Youth Action Team promotes a stronger connection between young people and the community. We seek potential leaders who have the energy and motivation to contribute.

John Liu

This will become a signature event for the region. It's an historic, beautiful location and we believe it will draw runners from throughout this region and beyond, for years to come. We also want it to be a family event, so the activities will include a family expo, one-mile youth fun run, and three-mile walk to the National Memorial Arch and back.

Paul Decker

Childhood sometimes does pay a second visit to man, youth never.

Anna Jameson

We have a little youth, a little experience, and a lot of speed.

Ben Leber

Hockey is the only youth sport not in some way subsidized by the town of Clifton Park. We pay the same price for ice as everyone else. The money helps offset a tournament's overall ice time and part of that comes back to the organization.

Tom Fron

We want to continue to keep our youth busy so they have more activities than just hanging around the streets and getting in trouble.

Steve Russell

This is a trigger time for youth to start to obsess about weight and body image.

Margo Maine

It dawned on me that we didn't have any national meeting, much less an organization, for youth that were fighting the tobacco industry.

Katherine Klem

We have to abandon the idea that schooling is something restricted to youth. How can it be, in a world where half the things a man knows at 20 are no longer true at 40 -- and half the things he knows at 40 hadn't been discovered when he was 20?

Arthur C. Clarke

We do find a fair number of youth in the homeless population that because of their circumstances are either no longer welcome or may have fled from their homes that are in need of services, but they cannot access them. They may have stayed in school, they may have jobs and be managing fairly well on their own ... but their legal status is fuzzy.

Rep. Roz Mcgee

It is hard to sit in silence, to watch one's youth wash away, ... Everything that I have professionally, and so much of what I have personally, is because of this great, fair city ... to see it being drowned like this is almost unbearable.

Harry Connick, Jr.

Craig Mulholland, who has successfully administered an accomplished Rangers in the community scheme, will take control of all additional administrative matters relating to youth football. Formerly trained with the SFA, Craig's administrative experience will be crucial to the organisation of a large youth structure.

Martin Bain

He has the technique, pace and youth to be a very good player. We've got to make sure we harness that ability.

Gary Peters

This particular age group is so tremendously vulnerable because they are being forced into making rather adult decisions. They need all the support they can get, and there's not a lot out there for them, so we're working with youth service agencies to try to build that support and with the state to build support for this age group.

Mary Sarris

I declare the Games of the 28th Olympiad closed and, in accordance with tradition, I call upon the youth of the world to assemble four years from now at Beijing to celebrate with us there the Games of the 29th Olympiad.

Jacques Rogge

This is the first effort of its kind on behalf of Safer Cities and we are proud to work with Tim and UNFCU to continue to strengthen civic responsibility within communities, engage youth and prevent crime. The climb represents a mission of hope and a true lesson in overcoming adversity.

Anna Tibaijuka

Generally you think that all musicians are hardcore rockers or party-going lunatics, but that's not always the case, ... Nathan is a youth worship leader and a wonderful person.

Ray Thompson

Middle age is youth without levity, and age without decay.

Doris Day

We think that Stewart has a sound technical mind and a good background in football and has outstanding work with youth players.

Patrick Roberts

Youth football is very important to the Buccaneers and our family, as it plays such an integral role in developing not only young athletes but young leaders as well.

Malcolm Glazer

We'll have one two weeks in August. We hope to book a youth hockey tournament here.

Robbie Nichols

Youth is happy because it has the capacity to see beauty. Anyone who keeps the ability to see beauty never grows old.

Franz Kafka

With our Masterworks we are featuring either youth or people who have a tie to this area. We open our Masterworks with a 12-year-old pianist who has been studying at Juilliard since he was 6. And he's the real deal. He's phenomenal.

Ceo M. Wade Kelley

This [youth violence] is a very big issue facing youth today, and it's rising. We are the next generation, so we need to make a stand and make a move.

Sean Smith

[Volunteers] are some of the nicest people you will ever meet. They have hearts of gold, as genuine as can be, and they truly want to help the youth of our community, and I cannot thank them enough for making a difference.

Robert Fraser

We looked at this team and where we were and knew it was time to rebuild. We were the sixth oldest team in the league. We needed youth, enthusiasm and potential ... I've been involved with teams like this a few times. We did it in Milwaukee. We did it in Cleveland. We can do it here.

Wayne Embry

My agenda is singular. I am not in this to be in the papers, for any political gain, the UNC is not my agenda, neither is the PNM. The youth and sport in this country are.

Ato Boldon

The hardest thing in the world is to capture the loyalty of people on the Web, and AIM has done that. AIM is a window to the youth market and a platform for so much more than just instant messaging.

John Battelle

[Bolton says the concert will also honor martial arts expert Norris who teaches self-defense techniques to at-risk youth in Texas through his program,] Kick Start. Tens of thousands of kids come through his organization, ... and he is a great hero for doing that kind of work.

Michael Bolton

The characters make fools of themselves repeatedly, and show how crazy we all act when we try to pursue eternal youth.

Kent Thompson

This area's been a popular area with the youth for a long time, but only in the last few years has what we would call excessive consumption of alcohol become a real issue.

Steve Lekwa

Very probably this was an idealistic youth who took things too far. I think the government has been over-enthusiastic about stretching a little evidence as far as they can.

Steve James

This is over with. She's finally going to rest in peace. She's going to live out her youth in Heaven.

Guadalupe Niño

Skepticism is the chastity of the intellect, and it is shameful to surrender it too soon or to the first comer: there is nobility in preserving it coolly and proudly through long youth, until at last, in the ripeness of instinct and discretion, it can be safely exchanged for fidelity and happiness.

George Santayana

I'm not going to let the city get by with anything. They have blown a lot of smoke in the last few years, saying we need to do something for the youth of the area. They will probably laugh at me and tell me to go home.

Joe Hinman

I'm glad he chose football. He's a small kid so he never played youth football. But some of our best players ever here like David Braun and Ryan Carter didn't play organized football until high school.

Al Minnaert

There's a romanticizing of the '60s, an inclination to protest, among today's youth.

Nancy Snow

We want to treat independent living youth who are in foster care the same as any other child in the world. Just because they're in foster care doesn't mean they shouldn't be able to drive.

Ashlee Johnson

He was just a raw-boned kid that loved the game and never took a play off. Coming from a small town, he had not learned a whole lot about football. So he would always want to know, 'Coach, should I take a 6-inch step, should I take a 12-inch step, what's my aiming point?' It was like coaching a kid in youth league that wants to ask you a million questions.

Dave Wilson

I invite the historical societies to engage the youth in this kind of learning.

Pat Kinney

It appears that the publisher has blatantly circumvented the rules in order to peddle sexually explicit material to our youth.

Fred Upton

Chad had been working out for the last three weeks. He?s going to win this fight because his overall skill and his youth will take over.

Dan Birmingham

Ignores the needs of California's youth and the sense of hope and future that Stanley Williams brings to so many who are disadvantaged.

Peter Fleming

When we set up the youth initiative part of the aim was to try and get new equipment. We applied for the grant and managed to get it, which is pretty brilliant.

Julie Goodwin

Volunteering youth can kind of get involved to learn the educational process about the legal system. And it really helps them to kind of get over their fears of speaking, try to give some of their peers a positive developmental process, even when they may have done something bad in the process.

Greg Puckett

The highlight of the trip was meeting Catholic youth from all over the world, learning about differences and sharing our love for God.

Patrick Wong

I hate to paint portraits! I hope never to paint another portrait in my life. Portraiture may be all right for a man in his youth, but after forty I believe that manual dexterity deserts one, and, besides, the color-sense is less acute. Youth can better stand the exactions of a personal kind that are inseparable from portraiture. I have had enough of it.

John Singer Sargent

People in the community are agonizing and asking, 'What could we have done to prevent this?' ... We've been working very hard over the past four to five years liaising with the authorities . . . with various agencies organizing and supervising youth activities. And still this has happened.

Azzam Tamimi

I appreciate the fact it pulls all of us together. We've been out here for 20, 30 years working with the youth. This gets all of us on the same page working toward the same goals.

George Jackson
