Younger Sons

Famous quotes containing the words younger and/or sons:

    The first sparrow of spring! The year beginning with younger hope than ever!... What at such a time are histories, chronologies, traditions, and all written revelations? The brooks sing carols and glees to the spring.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    They haven’t got no noses
    The fallen sons of Eve;
    Even the smell of roses
    Is not what they supposes;
    But more than mind discloses
    And more than men believe.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
