Whether sixty or sixteen, there is in every human being's heart the
lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what's next
and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and
my heart there is a wireless station: so long as it receives
messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and
from the infinite, so long are you young.
An individual human existence should be like a river—small at
first, narrowly contained within its banks, and rushing
passionately past boulders and over waterfalls. Gradually the river
grows wider, the banks recede, the waters flow more quietly, and in
the end, without any visible break, they become merged in the sea,
and painlessly lose their individual being.
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over
timidity,of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease.This
often exists in a man of sixty more than a boy of twenty.Nobody
grows old merely by a number of years.We grow old by deserting our
ideals.
Years may wrinkle the skin,but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the
soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the
spirit back to dust.
