His notable publications include 'The New Germany,' which provided insights into the socio-political landscape of post-World War I Germany, and 'Corps de droit ottoman,' a significant examination of Ottoman legal systems. Young's scholarly pursuits also extended to classical literature, as evidenced by his comprehensive studies on Greek literature in England, notably captured in 'On the History of Greek Literature in England: From the Earliest Times to ...'. This work not only traced the evolution of Greek literary influence in England but also highlighted the broader cultural exchanges between the two regions. Throughout his career, Young's writings reflected a deep engagement with historical contexts, making him a notable figure in the study of both literature and legal history. His ability to synthesize complex ideas and present them in an accessible manner has left a lasting impact on scholars and students alike. Young's legacy endures through his scholarly contributions, which continue to inform contemporary discussions in both literary and legal studies.
“The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends. I mean, life is tough. It takes up a lot of your time. What do you get at the end of it? A Death! What’s that, a bonus? I think the life cycle is all backwards. You should die first, get it out of the way. Then you live in an old age home. You get kicked out when you’re too young, you get a gold watch, you go to work. You work forty years until you’re young enough to enjoy your retirement. You do drugs, alcohol, you party, you get ready for high school. You go to grade school, you become a kid, you play, you have no responsibilities, you become a little baby, you go back into the womb, you spend your last nine months floating …and you finish off as an orgasm.””
“Youth is wasted on the young.””
“Resolve to be tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of the weak and the wrong. Sometime in life you will have been all of these.””
