Famous quotes containing the words young and/or girls:
“There was a young lady of Niger
Who smiled as she rode on a Tiger;

With the lady inside,
And the smile on the face of the Tiger.”

“After school days are over, the girls ... find no natural connection between their school life and the new one on which they enter, and are apt to be aimless, if not listless, needing external stimulus, and finding it only prepared for them, it may be, in some form of social excitement. ...girls after leaving school need intellectual interests, well regulated and not encroaching on home duties.”
—Ellen Henrietta Swallow Richards (1842–1911)
