Youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind ; it is not rosy cheeks , red lips and supple knees, it is a matter of the emotions : it is the freshness ; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life .
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 60 more than a boy of 20 . Nobody grows old merely by a number of years . We grow old by deserting our ideals.
Years 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 .
Whether 60 of 16 , 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’s a wireless station : so long as it receives messages of beauty , hope ,cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long as you are young .
When the aerials are down , and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old ,even at 20 , but as long as your aerials are up ,to catch waves of optimism , there is hope you may die young at 80.
Thank you!
青春不是生命的時候,它是一種精神狀態(tài);它不是紅潤的臉頰、紅潤的嘴唇和柔軟的膝蓋,它是一種情緒的物質:它是新鮮的;它是生命深處的新鮮。
青春意味著勇氣驅走怯懦氣貫長虹,冒險戰(zhàn)勝安逸。這往往存在于一個60歲以上的男子,比一個20歲的男孩。沒有人會變老,只是靠一些年。不思進取。
歲月在皮膚上起皺紋,但放棄熱情則會使靈魂起皺。憂慮,恐懼,自我不信任扭曲了心靈,把精神變成了塵土。
不管60 16,但在每個人的心,奇跡之誘惑,孩童的孩童般的渴望和對生活的樂趣。在你的心和我的心有一個無線電臺:只要它接收到美好,希望,歡樂,勇氣和力量的信息,從男人和從無限的,只要你年輕。
當天線倒塌時,你的心靈蒙上玩世不恭的霜雪和悲觀厭世的冰凌,那么你已經老了,甚至在20,但只要你豎起天線,捕捉樂觀的信號,你就有希望在80歲死去。
謝謝你!
