Youth is not a time of life - it is a ripe state of mind. It is not a matter of ripe cheeks, red lips, and supple knees; it is a temper of will, a quality of imagination, a vigor of emotions; it is a freshness of the deep spring of life. Youth means a tempermental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite of adventure over love of ease...... Samuel Ullman, 1840 - 1924

Does the news bother you? Do you worry about things out of your control? Then take the time to concentrate your mind in the acquisition of some new and useful knowledge and stop it from flitting about. By the same token, guard against making the mistake of those who keep themselves so busy trying to gain control that they wear themselves out and lose their sense of direction, having no purpose to guide their actions or even their thoughts.

Marcus Aurelius ~ 121 - 180

Be at peace with your own soul, then heaven and earth will be at peace with you. Enter eagerly into the treasure house that is within you, you will see the things that are in heaven; for there is but one single entry to them both. The ladder that leads to the Kingdom is hidden within your soul... dive into yourself, and in your soul, you will discover the stairs by which to ascend.

Saint Issac Nineveh, 7th century
