We cannot let the fathers decide the question for us.

Our reason, enlightened by the Bible, shall be the standard.

I am not ready to excommunicate all those who lift their feet beyond a certain height.

I would not visit our youth with a rigour of criticism that would put out all their ardour of soul.

I do not believe that the inhabitants of Wales, who used to step to the sound of the rustic pipcorn, went down to ruin.

I would give to all of our youth the right to romp and play.

God meant it, or he would not have surcharged our natures with such exuberance.

If a mother join hands with her children, and while the eldest strikes the keys, fill all the house with the sound of agile feet I see no harm.

If a few friends, gathered in happy circle, conclude to cross and recross the room to the sound of piano well played, I see no harm.

I, for a long while, tried to say net a harm, but I never could, and probably never will.

I would to God men kept young for a greater length of time.

Never since my schoolboy days have I loved so well as now the hilarities of life.

What if we have felt heavy burdens, and suffered a multitude of hard knocks?

Is there any reason why we should stand in the path of those who, unstung by life's misfortunes, are exhilarated and full of glee?

God bless the young.

They will have to live many a day if they want to hear me say one word to dampen their ardour or clip their wings, or to throw a cloud upon their life by telling them that it is hard and dark and doleful.

It is no such thing.

You will meet with many a trial, but speaking from my own experience, let me tell you that you will be treated a great deal better than you deserve.

Let us not grudge to the young their joy.

As we go further on in life, let us go with a remembrance that we have had our gleeful days, when old age frosts our locks and stiffens our limbs.
