"Youth is the best time to be rich, and the best time to be poor"
- Euripides
About this Quote
This quote by Euripides speaks to the concept that youth is a time of opportunity and capacity. Being young is a time when one can make the most of the resources available to them, whether they are rich or bad. For those who are rich, youth is a time to enjoy the advantages of their wealth and to utilize it to pursue their dreams. For those who are bad, youth is a time to work hard and strive for a better future. It is a time to take threats and to take advantage of the resources available. Ultimately, youth is a time to maximize whatever circumstance one finds themselves in, and to use it to create a much better future.
"Don't lower your expectations to meet your performance. Raise your level of performance to meet your expectations. Expect the best of yourself, and then do what is necessary to make it a reality"
"The man who makes everything that leads to happiness depends upon himself, and not upon other men, has adopted the very best plan for living happily. This is the man of moderation, the man of manly character and of wisdom"
