Schoolboy

Famous quotes containing the word schoolboy:

    I see a schoolboy when I think of him,
    With face and nose pressed to a sweet-shop window....

    It was the schoolboy who said, “Faith is believing what you know ain’t so.”
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    Thus to him, to this schoolboy under the bending dome of day, is suggested that he and it proceed from one root; one is leaf and one is flower; relation, sympathy, stirring in every vein. And what is that root? Is not that the soul of his soul?
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
