"What a mistake to suppose that the passions……" — Edward Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton

What a mistake to suppose that the passions are strongest in youth!… - Edward Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton
"What a mistake to suppose that the passions are strongest in youth! The passions are not stronger, but the control over them is weaker! They are more easily excited, they are more violent and apparent; but they have less energy, less durability, less intense and concentrated power than in maturer life."
