My country or the stars Or my youth, what's farthest?
The Hubble Telescope can see the farthest galaxies. The Webb Telescope will see the farthest stars.
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.
There is an orientalism in the most restless pioneer, and the farthest west is but the farthest east.
Not the stars, not the farthest solar systems, not the millions of different species of animal life, but the child is the greatest of God's creations.
It would be better if only the old men fought the wars. Every country is the country of youth. When its youth dies, it dies with them.
We are the living links in a life force that moves and plays around and through us, binding the deepest soils with the farthest stars.
We're the country of movie stars because the stars, like ourselves, represent a kind of extended infantilism, beauties waiting for the big chance.
People have stars, but they aren't the same. For travelers, the stars are guides. For other people, they're nothing but tiny lights. And for still others, for scholars, they're problems... But all those stars are silent stars. You, though, you'll have stars like nobody else... since I'll be laughing on one of them, for you it'll be as if all the stars are laughing. You'll have stars that can laugh!... and it'll be as if I had given you, instead of stars, a lot of tiny bells that know how to laugh.
When you reach for the stars, you are reaching for the farthest thing out there. When you reach deep into yourself, it is the same thing, but in the opposite direction. If you reach in both directions, you will have spanned the universe.
There's a lot going on in country music, with indie-label hipsters and underground bloggers arguing their interpretations of what country is, and pop-country stars defending themselves. That deserves to be poked fun at.
Crabbed age and youth cannot live together; Youth is full of pleasure, age is full of care; Youth like summer morn, age like winter weather; Youth like summer brave, age like winter bare. Youth is full sport, age's breath is short; Youth is nimble, age is lame; Youth is hot and bold, age is weak and cold; Youth is wild, age is tame. Age, I do abhor thee; youth, I do adore thee.
India is a youthful country. A country with such a major percentage of youth has the capability to change not only its own, but the fate of the entire world.
As the stars are the glory of the sky, so great men are the glory of their country, yea, of the whole earth. The hearts of great men are the stars of earth; and doubtless when one looks down from above upon our planet, these hearts are seen to send forth, a silvery light just like the stars of heaven.
Sports stars connect with youth. So, Viacheslav 'Slava' Fetisov's coming to Ladakh was a natural thing.
People see rock and roll as, as youth culture, and when youth culture becomes monopolised by big business, what are the youth to do? Do you, do you have any idea? I think we should destroy the bogus capitalist process that is destroying youth culture.
Youth! There is nothing like youth. The middle-aged are mortgaged to Life. The old are in Life's lumber-room. But youth is the Lord of Life. Youth has a kingdom waiting for it. Every one is born a king, and most people die in exile.
