Year Boys

Famous quotes containing the words year and/or boys:

    The year growing ancient,
    Not yet on summer’s death, nor on the birth
    Of trembling winter, the fairest flowers o’the season
    Are our carnations and streaked gillyvors.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    By school age, many boys experience pressure to reveal inner feelings as humiliating. They think their mothers are saying to them, “You must be hiding something shameful.” And shucking clams is a snap compared to prying secrets out of a boy who’s decided to “clam up.”
    Ron Taffel (20th century)
