Wild Boys

Famous quotes containing the words wild and/or boys:

Or if the batsman thinks he’s bowled,
They know not, poor misguided souls,
They, too, shall perish unconsoled.”
—Andrew Lang (1844–1912)

“Breaking free from the delicious security of mother love can be a painful rupture for either mother or son. Some boys can’t do it. Some mothers can’t let it happen because they know the boy is not ready to leave her; others are simply not ready to give up their sons.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
