I am glad I will not be young in a future without wilderness.
We started a movement... to build character, citizenship and confidence in young people.
Cinemas gained new young audiences who wanted films made for them.
But I've always attracted attention, it's true, ever since I was very young.
You cannot blame porn. When I was young, I used to masturbate to Gilligan's Island.
You know, I feel sorry for the young artists.
A young bride is like a plucked flower; but a guilty wife is like a flower that had been walked over.
My system for staying young is to work a lot, to always have a project on the go.
I want to be a young mum and if I didn't have to work I'd have them tomorrow. I'd like three!
I think that there are more opportunities for young women in America than there are in Tanzania. But I also think there are many of the same problems.
I do think it's important for young women to know that magazine covers are retouched. People don't really look like that.
I like the feeling that I'm giving young women self-confidence. It sounds so cliched, but it can be very moving.

When you are a young person, you are like a young creek, and you meet many rocks, many obstacles and difficulties on your way. You hurry to get past these obstacles and get to the ocean. But as the creek moves down through the fields, it becomes larg...
I had uncovered a widely held but overlooked attachment: our attachment to the view that every problem must have a solution. We delude ourselves that we can think our way out of a problem or we see it as a matter of finding the right person to advise...
It is easy to forget now, how effervescent and free we all felt that summer. Everything fades: the shimmer of gold over White Cove; the laughter in the night air; the lavender early morning light on the faces of skyscrapers, which had suddenly become...
The indescribable pleasure—which pales the rest of life's joys—is abundant compensation for the investigator who endures the painful and persevering analytical work that precedes the appearance of the new truth, like the pain of childbirth. It is...
Suddenly I realized that I wanted everything to be as it was when I was younger. When you're young enough, you don't know that you live in a cheap lousy apartment. A cracked chair is nothing other than a chair. A dandelion growing out of a crack in t...
