Young Men

Famous quotes containing the words young and/or men:

    There was a young man of Japan
    Whose limericks never would scan.
    When folks told him so,
    He replied, “Yes, I know,
    But I always try to get as many words into the last line as I possibly can.”
    Anonymous.

    [A]s I am pretty well acquainted by great Opportunities with the Nature of Man, and know of a Truth, that all Men fight against their Will, the Danger vanishes, and Resolution rises upon this Subject. For this Reason I shall talk very freely on a Custom which all Men wish exploded, tho’ no Man has Courage enough to resist it.
    Richard Steele (1672–1729)
