Young Men

Famous quotes containing the words young men, young and/or men:

    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)

    Thy two breasts are like two young roes that are twins, which feed among the lilies.
    —Bible: Hebrew Song of Solomon, 4:5.

    If I were a woman, I would never trust men who say they are feminists. Either they are acting out of guilt, trying to establish credentials, or they think they might be able to pick up more girls. If I were a woman, I would say, go away and have your first period. Then come back and tell me you are a feminist.
    David Thomas (b. 1959)
