Young Men

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

    Young men kill someone for a handful of coins, then are remorseless, even casual: Hey, man, things happen. And their parents nab the culprit: it was the city, the cops, the system, the crowd, the music. Anyone but him. Anyone but me.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)

    A young bride is like a plucked flower; but a guilty wife is like a flower that had been walked over.
    HonorĂ© De Balzac (1799–1850)

    As soon as you begin to say “We have always done things this way—perhaps that might be a better way,” conscious law-making is beginning. As soon as you begin to say “We do things this way—they do things that way—what is to be done about it?” men are beginning to feel towards justice, that resides between the endless jar of right and wrong.
    Helen M. Cam (1885–1968)
