City Boy

Famous quotes containing the words city and/or boy:

“What life is best?
Courts are but only superficial schools
To dandle fools:
The rural parts are turned into a den
Of savage men:
And where ‘s a city from all vice so free,
But may be termed the worst of all the three?”
—Francis Bacon (1561–1626)

“The boy is a Greek; the youth, romantic; the adult, reflective.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
