““There is a time somewhere in each of our lives, certainly before we reach the age of thirty, when our youth achieves a kind of perfection. A glorious time when we are perfectly balanced between youth and maturity, between optimism and worldliness, between idealism and inertia. It is a brief period, lasting only a year or perhaps a few of them, when it is clear that we have finally become all we are ever going to be.””
