Shy Younger Men

Famous quotes containing the words shy, younger and/or men:

    I want mother’s milk,
    that good sour soup.
    I want breasts singing like eggplants,
    and a mouth above making kisses.
    I want nipples like shy strawberries
    for I need to suck the sky.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Harvey: You’re a hell of a lot younger than I am. And you’re a dancer.
    Gillian: I’m a singer.
    Harvey: Well, you dance around when you sing.
    Blake Edwards (b. 1922)

    We teach boys to be such men as we are. We do not teach them to aspire to be all they can. We do not give them a training as if we believed in their noble nature. We scarce educate their bodies. We do not train the eye and the hand. We exercise their understandings to the apprehension and comparison of some facts, to a skill in numbers, in words; we aim to make accountants, attorneys, engineers; but not to make able, earnest, great- hearted men.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
