Youth Speaks

Famous quotes containing the words youth and/or speaks:

“Every one knows about the young man who falls in love with the chorus-girl because she can kick his hat off, and his sister’s friends can’t or won’t. But the youth who marries her, expecting that all her departures from convention will be as agile or as delightful to him as that, is still the classic example of folly.”
—Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)

“Alcohol is barren. The words a man speaks in the night of drunkenness fade like the darkness itself at the coming of day.”
—Marguerite Duras (b. 1914)
