Study is the bane of childhood, the oil of youth, the indulgence of adulthood, and a restorative in old age.
After my bar mitzvah, I started to assimilate, to really not pay attention to my roots. The anti-Semitic experiences of my youth had been very painful.

Each youth betrays considerable anxiety about the wedding night ahead.
I'm like the youth's big brother now. I have to be that voice for them.
Going to the movies was a big event in my youth. My father would be the initiator - he'd have me put on a jacket to see a film.
As a youth, I and most of the other smarter kids in school got picked on by bullies. I was a big guy - even at a young age - and would take the beatings for my friends, who were often smaller and scrawnier.
