Shy Younger Men

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

    “The shy man does have some slight revenge upon society for the torture it inflicts upon him. He is able, to a certain extent, to communicate his misery.

    —Jerome K. Jerome (1859–1927)

    “A woman’s always younger than a man
    At equal years.”

    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
