Transylvanian Mountain Boys

Famous quotes containing the words mountain and/or boys:

    We are wearied of our huts
    And the smoky smell of our garments.
    We are sick with desire of the sun
    And the grass on the mountains.
    —Unknown. The Grass on the Mountain (l. 11–14)

    For little boys are rancorous
    When robbed of any myth,
    And spiteful and cantankerous
    To all their kin and kith.
    But little girls can draw conclusions
    And profit from their lost illusions.
    Phyllis McGinley (1905–1978)
