Famous quotes containing the words young and/or woman:

“There goes a saying, and ‘twas shrewdly said,
Old fish at table, but young flesh in bed.”

“The prince exults whomever he selects as his consort, but the queen, rather than elevating the subject of her choice, humiliates him as a man. By all that is right, a man is not intended to be the husband of his wife, but a woman is to be her husband’s wife.”
