诗歌：
　　
　　When you are old and grey and full of sleep.
　　And nodding by the fire,take down this book,
　　And slowly read,and dream of the soft look
　　Your eyes had once,and of their shadows deep;
　　How many loved your moments of glad grace,
　　And loved your beauty with love false or true,
　　But one man loved the pilgrim Soul in you ,
　　And loved the sorrows of your changing face;
　　And bending down beside the glowing bars,
　　Murmur,a little sadly,how Love fled
　　And paced upon the mountains overhead
　　And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.
　　《当你老了》
　　诗/叶芝
　　当你老了,头发灰白,且睡意沉沉
　　倦坐在炉火的近旁.请取下这本书来
　　慢慢地翻读,追怀当年的眼神
　　那柔美动人而又深幽莫测的深深影迹
　　多少人爱过你青春时美妙的瞬间
　　爱过你的美貌,虚伪或是真诚地
　　却只有那独独的一人
　　他爱你那朝圣者般澄澈的心田
　　爱你因岁月流逝而逐渐显露悲凄的容颜
　　在火红的炉灶边,你弯下腰来
　　低语着,带着淡淡的伤感
　　你呢喃间,寻思这爱情
　　是怎样地逝去,又怎样地步等群山之巅
　　是哪般地,在满天星辰之中藏住了自己的脸
　　文章：
　　Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.
　　Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.
　　Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.
　　Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being's heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing appetite for what's next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart, there is a wireless station; so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, courage and power from man and from the infinite, so long as you are young.
　　When your aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you've grown old, even at 20; but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there's hope you may die young at 80.
　　青春不是年华,而是心境；青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝,而是深沉的意志、宏伟的想象、炽热的感情；青春是生命的深泉在涌流.
　　青春气贯长虹,勇锐盖过怯弱,进去压倒苟安,如此锐气,二十后生有之,六旬男子则更多见.年年有加,并非垂老；理想丢弃,方堕暮年.
　　岁月悠悠,衰微只及肌肤；热忱抛却,颓唐必至灵魂.烦忧、惶恐、丧失自信,定使心灵扭曲,意气如灰.
　　无论年届花甲,抑或二八芳龄,心中皆有生命之欢乐,奇迹之诱惑,孩童般天真久盛不衰.人人心中皆有一台天线,只要你从天上人间接受美好、希望、欢乐、勇气和力量的信号,你就青春永驻,风华常存.
　　一旦天线倒塌,锐气被冰雪覆盖,玩世不恭、自暴自弃油然而生,几十年方二十,实已垂老矣；然则只要竖起天线,捕捉乐观的信号,你就有望在八十高龄告别尘寰时仍觉得年轻.
