Circa 400 BC

"All [the young's] errors are due to excess and vehemence and their neglect of the maxim of Chilon, for they do everything to excess, love, hate, and everything else. And they think they know everything, and confidently affirm it, and this is the cause of their excess in everything. If they do wrong, it is due to insolence, not to wickedness."

Aristotle, Rhetoric, Book 2, Chapter 12.
