View quotes by George Orwell

When you're young and everything dramatic is exciting, you start to believe that hype that, in order to be an artist, you have to suffer. I've graduated from that school.
View quotes by Lauryn Hill

A young sailor boy came to see me today. It pleases me to have these lads seek me on their return from their first voyage, and tell me how much they have learned about navigation
View quotes by Maria Mitchell

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.
View quotes by Zack De La Rocha

I HAVE grown up but that should be a positive thing. When you look at a photo album it's lovely to remember being so young but it's also good to know you grew up!
View quotes by Jenny Agutter

The chambers in the house of dreams
Are fed with so divine an air, That
Time's hoary wings grow young therein,
And they who walk there are most fair.
View quotes by Francis Thompson

On a drunken experience when he was young: I seemed to have lost all control of my body. My brother Gary found me outside the house in my underwear.
