A Quote by Theocritus

Beautiful is the bloom of youth, but it lasts only for a short time. — © Theocritus
Beautiful is the bloom of youth, but it lasts only for a short time.
Only that which lasts forever is real. That which is done in the temple lasts forever; therefore, the temple is the real world. Most of what we experience "out there," such as sickness, wealth, poverty, fame, etc., lasts for only a short period of time, so it is not the real world.
Youth must be the worst time in anybody's life. Everything's happening for the first time, which means that sorrow, then, lasts forever. Later, you can see that there was something very beautiful in it. That's because you ain't got to go through it no more.
I am not at all in a rush to make a career that only lasts for a short span of time.
And who's to say that just because something lasts only a short time, it has little value?
Perhaps we need to separate youth from education. Education lasts forever. Youth is the time for exploration, maturation, socialization.
Tis not on youth's smooth cheek the blush alone, which fades so fast, But the tender bloom of heart is gone, ere youth itself be past.
Characters last. Beautiful writing lasts. A compelling narrative lasts. Art survives long after ideas go extinct.
Youth is full of 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, and age is tame.
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.
The only beautiful thing in the world whose beauty lasts for ever is a pure, fair soul.
Acting is important to me, but so is the rest of my life, and what I still keep in mind is that the pressure of being successful lasts so short a time.
Everything ends eventually. I guess that's what makes summer so intense, this feeling that it lasts for only a a short while and then it's back to reality.
The word is like an object - we were thinking "bloom," "doom." It encapsulated tons: the bloom, the end of the bloom, and then coming back the next year.
You do a movie. However long it lasts, it begins and it ends in a relatively short period of time. In a given period of time, let's say a year, you can have three, four, or five different experiences which is exciting.
As time goes on, you'll understand. What lasts, lasts; what doesn't, doesn't. Time solves most things. And what time can't solve, you have to solve yourself.
I cried over beautiful things, knowing no beautiful thing lasts.
