Shy Younger Men

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

    Although adults have a role to play in teaching social skills to children, it is often best that they play it unobtrusively. In particular, adults must guard against embarrassing unskilled children by correcting them too publicly and against labeling children as shy in ways that may lead the children to see themselves in just that way.
    Zick Rubin (20th century)

    I know not what the younger dreams—
    Some vague Utopia—and she seems,
    When withered old and skeleton-gaunt,
    An image of such politics.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    To girls and wives always alive and fated;
    To men and scholars always dead like Greek
    And always mistranslated.
    Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)
