Famous quotes containing the words young and/or girls:
“O what venerable and reverend creatures did the aged seem! Immortal Cherubims! And young men glittering and sparkling Angels, and maids strange seraphic pieces of life and beauty! Boys and girls tumbling in the street, and playing, were moving jewels. I knew not that they were born or should die; but all things abided eternally as they were in their proper places.”
—Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)
“under chenille bed spreads
The farm girls are feeling the goddess in them struggle and rise
brooding”
—James Dickey (b. 1923)
