Famous quotes containing the words young and/or girls:
“Never yield to that temptation, which, to most young men, is very strong, of exposing other people’s weaknesses and infirmities, for the sake either of diverting the company, or of showing your own superiority. You may get the laugh on your side by it for the present; but you will make enemies by it for ever; and even those who laugh with you then, will, upon reflection, fear, and consequently hate you.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
“About twenty years ago
Two girls came in where I worked
A bosomy English rose
And her friend in specs I could talk to.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
