Everybody's the same. People are all the same. But it’s the prerogative of youth to think it’s not so.

It seems like once people grow up, they have no idea what’s cool.

Young children have so little life experience that they inevitably assume that what happens around and to them is the norm.

If everybody is thinking alike, then somebody isn't thinking.

The young do not know enough to be prudent, and therefore they attempt the impossible — and achieve it, generation after generation.

First, we seem to assume that if a lot of people are doing the same thing, they must know something we don’t.

It's just that old people always think young people haven't really learned about love; and young people think that old people have forgotten about love; and, you know, they're both wrong.

Young people are all the same. The more books you read, the more confused you become.

I think if you study — if you learn too much of what others have done, you may tend to take the same direction as everybody else.

The young people think the old people are fools — but the old people know the young people are fools.

The young do not know enough to be prudent, and therefore they attempt the impossible – and achieve it, generation after generation.’ Pearl S. Buck

When you're young and have ideas, people
often think you're just being childish and silly.

The young habitually mistake lust for love, they're infested with idealism of all kinds.

One of the most damaging and widespread social beliefs is the idea that most adults are incapable of learning new skills.
