What I regret about the follies of youth is not having committed them but not being able to do so again.

When you are dissatisfied and would like to go back to youth, think of Chemistry class.

I think I don't regret a single 'excess' of my responsive youth-I only regret, in my chilled age, certain occasions and possibilities I didn't embrace.

Sport must be accessible to working class youth.

The Olympic Games are not just ordinary world championships but a quadrennial festival of universal youth. . . celebrated by each succeeding generation as it arrives on the threshold of adulthood.

Think, speak, and act. With age comes self-reproach: I might have done more. Therefore now do!
