Young Woman

Famous quotes containing the words young and/or woman:

“A young person is a person with nothing to learn
One who already knows that ice does not chill and fire does not burn . . .
It knows it can spend six hours in the sun on its first
day at the beach without ending up a skinless beet,
And it knows it can walk barefoot through the barn
without running a nail in its feet. . . .
Meanwhile psychologists grow rich
Writing that the young are ones’ should not
undermine the self-confidence of which.”
—Ogden Nash (1902–1971)

“It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman in a wide house.”
—Bible: Hebrew Proverbs, 21:9 and 25:24.
