Young Men

Famous quotes containing the words young and/or men:

    But these young scholars, who invade our hills,
    Bold as the engineer who fells the wood,
    And travelling often in the cut he makes,
    Love not the flower they pluck, and know it not
    And all their botany is Latin names.
    The old men studied magic in the flowers.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    It appears to me that men are hired to run down men of genius under the mask of translators, but Dante gives too much of Caesar: he is not a republican.
    William Blake (1757–1827)
