Famous quotes containing the word schoolboys:
“Love goes toward love as schoolboys from their books,
But love from love, toward school with heavy looks.”

“Duns at his lordship’s gate began to meet;
And brickdust Moll had screamed through half the street.
The turnkey now his flock returning sees,
Duly let out a-nights to steal for fees:
The watchful bailiffs take their silent stands,
And schoolboys lag with satchels in their hands.”
—Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
