Book Description
Excerpt from The Joy of Youth Active emotions were running in the hidden veins of this pair. The boy was an artist; the girl lived in the country, but vaguely hungered for all that art meant and felt affinity with it. The instinct of the creator belonged to her - not as a conquering fire, but as a pleasant and abiding addition. She told herself sometimes that she, too, might have made things had her lot fallen among the makers. She was well born and accustomed to a society of conventional sort; but her soul was unconventional, and she hailed this meeting gladly, as a scrap of salt to uneventful days.

Excerpt from The Goblet of Youth Stir my sluggish veins with Youth's rare wine, So I may forget the ravages wrought by time, Let me feel again the joy of that ecstatic hour, When life meant love, hope, success and power. Give unto me, once more, the fullness of life, The future beckoning from the distant height Let me hear again Youth's victorious strain, Ringing, clear and defiant, amid loss or gain!

Book Description
Excerpt from Youth, Youth Two of your objections to these stories I can probably anticipate. You will say, firstly, that I have painted a freak gallery of masters. To this I beg to make a reply that you must smilingly admit to hold a truth - some who dashingly elect to follow the high steep path of educating Youth, especially in Science, are in truth little less than freaks and these alone provide the basis, in fact or fiction, for any schoolboy rag. Nothing, however, universal follows. I should be the last to take a definite side in the time-long, almost friendly, battle between Youth and Age. Every boy of seventeen, however much he may seem to suffer schoolmasters gladly, nurtures a hidden but self convincing scorn for all his seniors as Victorian or even worse. In his mind's eye they figure as narrow. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Poetry of Catullus The favourites of the gods are released from life before they have had time to outstay their youth. The tribute to those who died young is tribute to the youth which they never lived to lose - ih part, no doubt, objective, but in part also subjective, and prompted by the thought expressed in that line of Thackeray: Oh, the brave days, when we were twenty-one!

Book Description
Excerpt from Rose-White Youth I take this opportunity of stating that all the verses in this book are my own, save such quotations as are too well known to need a reference, and the charming rhyme from which the title is taken. In publishing other books of mine, I have had to answer numerous enquiries as to the source of the verses at the heads of chapters and throughout the book, when the author was not stated, and as to whether I have published any volume of verse. In order to save my unknown friends and myself trouble, I think it best to state that the verses "Rose-white Youth" are mine, and that I have not published, and am not publishing, any collection of my verse. I am indebted to the editor of the "Gentlewoman" for leave to reprint "A Child's Roundelay," which first appeared in that paper but through some omission without my name to it.

Excerpt from The Favorite Story Book: Or Pleasing Sketches for Youth Mary and Martha Goodall were nice little girls. No one ever heard of either of them disobeying their mother, or getting into a bad humor, and pouting, when she told them to do any thing. No; they liked to do what they were told to do. They loved their mother, and they knew she was able to teach them what was right. She sent them to school, where they learned to read and write. But she did much more than that for them.
