Youngest Quotes

The expression Jake saw on all the faces, oldest to youngest, was the same: pure joy. Not just that, he thought, and remembered a phrase his English teacher had used about how some books make us feel: the ecstasy of perfect recognition. Stephen King
The youngest child in any family is always a jokemaker, because a joke is the only way he can enter into an adult conversation. Kurt Vonnegut
Around about now, young John Owen comes out of the shack lugging my old musket from the War. At six years of age, our youngest boy already knew his business.

I believe his plan was to shoot this feller, get the story later. Peter Matthiessen

It took me a long time to figure out that the youngest in a family of dragons is still a dragon from the point of view of those who find dragons alarming. Margaret Atwood
Mary Renault quote: "A man is at his youngest when he thinks he is a man, not yet..."

One day, quite some time ago, I happened on a photograph of Napoleon’s youngest brother, Jerome, taken in 1852. And I realized then, with an amazement I have not been able to lessen since: ‘I am looking at eyes that looked at the Emperor.’ Sometimes I would mention this amazement, but since no one seemed to share it, nor even to understand it (life consists of these little touches of solitude), I forgot about it. Roland Barthes
I don't believe it! I don't believe it! Oh, Ron, how wonderful! A prefect! That's everyone in the family!"What are Fred and I, next-door neighbors?" said George indignantly, as his mother pushed him aside and flung her arms around her youngest son. J. K. Rowling
The youngest, dumpiest, dullest of the four dull and dumpy daughters whom Mrs. Van Osburgh, with unsurpassed astuteness, had "placed" one by one in enviable niches of existence! Edith Wharton
Dear Mr Larkin, I expect you think it's jolly cheeky for a schoolgirl to -Dear Dr Larkin, My freind [sic] and I had an argument as to which of us has the biggest breasts and we wondered if you would act as - My youngest, she's fourteen and quite absurdly stuck on your poems - but then she's advanced in all ways - refuses to wear a - Philip Larkin
I am a member of a fragile species, still new to the earth, the youngest creatures of any scale, here only a few moments as evolutionary time is measured, a juvenile species, a child of a species. We are only tentatively set in place, error prone, at risk of fumbling, in real danger at the moment of leaving behind only a thin layer of of our fossils, radioactive at that. Lewis Thomas
Eleanor Roosevelt quote: "Today is the oldest you've ever been, and the youngest you'll..."
Today is the oldest you've ever been, and the youngest you'll ever be again. Eleanor Roosevelt
Live your life, take chances, be crazy. Dont wait 'cause right now is the oldest you've ever been & the youngest you'll be ever again Suzanne Collins
The youngest, aged twelve, could not conceal her disappointment, and turned away, feeling as so many of us have felt when we discover that our idols are very extraordinary men and women. Louisa May Alcott
Charles Dickens quote: "Crime, like death, is not confined to the old and withered..."
Crime, like death, is not confined to the old and withered alone. The youngest amd fairest are too often its chosen victims. Charles Dickens
I feel a little peculiar around the children. For one thing, they grown. And I see they think me and Nettie and Shug and Albert and Samuel and Harpo and Sofia and Jack and Odessa real old and don't know much what going on. But I don't think us feel old at all. And us so happy. Matter of fact, I think this the youngest us ever felt. Alice Walker
