Baker Boys

Famous quotes containing the words baker and/or boys:

    For me, as a beginning novelist, all other living writers form a control group for whom the world is a placebo.
    —Nicholson Baker (b. 1957)

    By school age, many boys experience pressure to reveal inner feelings as humiliating. They think their mothers are saying to them, “You must be hiding something shameful.” And shucking clams is a snap compared to prying secrets out of a boy who’s decided to “clam up.”
    Ron Taffel (20th century)
