Youth Organization
Nationell Ungdom was the youth organization of the Swedish Resistance Movement. However, in May 2006 they announced the youth organization as dismantled and all its members and activities are now part of the main organization. The main reason given was that "no youth organization has never made any revolutionary changes of society" and that it would be better if the young recruits are groomed as adults, as the members of the Volkssturm in 1945.

Famous quotes containing the words youth and/or organization:
“The delicious faces of children, the beauty of school-girls, “the sweet seriousness of sixteen,” the lofty air of well-born, well-bred boys, the passionate histories in the looks and manners of youth and early manhood, and the varied power in all that well-known company that escort us through life,—we know how these forms thrill, paralyze, provoke, inspire, and enlarge us.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“One of the many reasons for the bewildering and tragic character of human existence is the fact that social organization is at once necessary and fatal. Men are forever creating such organizations for their own convenience and forever finding themselves the victims of their home-made monsters.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
