Youth
　　
　　Youth is not a time of life,is a state of mind. It’s not a matter of rosy cheeks.Red lips and supple keens,it is a matter of the will.A quality of the imagination a vigor of the emotions, it is the freshness of the deep spring of life.
　　
　　Youth means a tempermental predominance of encourage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the love the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60, more than a boy of 20. nobody grows by the number of years, we grow old by deserting our ideas.
　　
　　Whether 60 or 20 , there is in every human being’s heart the lure of the wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living. In the bcenter of your hart and my hart there a wireless station: so long as it receives message of beauty, hope ,cheer, courage and power from men and infinite , so long as you are young.
　　
　　When the aerials are down , and your spirit is covered with the snows of cynicism and the ice of the pessimism , then you’re grown old,even at 20 , but as long as your aerials are up , to catch the ware of optimism,there’s hope you may die young at 80.转载于《今晚报》
