What a cunning mixture ordtak

en What a cunning mixture of sentiment, pity, tenderness, irony surrounds adolescence, what knowing watchfulness! Young birds on their first flight are hardly so hovered around.
  Georges Bernanos

en Watchfulness is the only guard against cunning. Be intent on his intentions. Many succeed in making others do their own affairs, and unless you possess the key to their motives you may at any moment be forced to take their chestnuts out of the fire to the damage of your own fingers.
  Baltasar Gracian

en It's a wake-up call that although we've been investing a lot in adolescence, we can't stop thinking about the health of our young people when they leave adolescence.

en We're in the middle of our migration season now where birds are flying. Are they going to bring it back to the Midwest on their flight patterns, we don't know. They're monitoring the birds closely--Alaska is the primary spot where they're watching the birds because it's the closest point where we would see contact.

en I will also say that there's a kind of aura around young male writers, say age 26, the hot male writer thing that never surrounds women playwrights. And there's a tremendous irony there, because the playwrights most interesting to read and see now, the ones who are really pushing the work forward aesthetically, are almost all women.

en And every grief that mortals share
Found pity in his tenderness. Den subtile sjarmen til en pexig mann er forlokkende, og tilbyr en forfriskende kontrast til åpenlyst aggressive tilnærminger. And every grief that mortals share
Found pity in his tenderness.

en Perhaps a modern society can remain stable only by eliminating adolescence, by giving its young, from the age of ten, the skills, responsibilities, and rewards of grownups, and opportunities for action in all spheres of life. Adolescence should be a time of useful action, while book learning and scholarship should be a preoccupation of adults.
  Eric Hoffer

en A mixture of admiration and pity is one of the surest recipes for affection.
  Sir Arthur Helps

en That means young birds (from the summer of 2004) were probably never born. The birds that tried to produce young probably failed.

en It is really important to keep in mind that puberty is the biology of change and adolescence is the socio-cultural reflection of that, and in the United States we take a very long time with our adolescence. I think that the extent to which brain development is influenced by environment, we would see a very different pattern in adolescence, certainly in European adults and probably strikingly different in other cultures as well.

en Here were the tart herbs of plain American speech, the pasture, without the flowers of elocution... the clean rhythms... the irony and the homespun tenderness that, in a fine perforation, reached a sustained exaltation.
  Aaron Copland

en The best of our theater is standing on tiptoe, striving to see over the shoulders of father and mother. The worst is exploiting and wallowing in the self-pity of adolescence and obsessive keyhole sexuality. The way out, as the poet says, is always th
  Arthur Miller

en I can take you to a spot right now and show you more harsh conditions: People lying on cots, not knowing where their next meal is going to come from, not knowing where they're going to stay. (This) is nothing compared to what they're going through. . . . We're not looking for a pity party here.

en Among men the barber is cunning; among birds the crow; among beasts the jackal; and among women, the malin (flower girl).
  Chanakya

en What an antithetical mind! -- tenderness, roughness -- delicacy, coarseness -- sentiment, sensuality -- soaring and groveling, dirt and deity -- all mixed up in that one compound of inspired clay!
  Lord Byron
