I never see any difference in boys. I only know two sorts of boys. Mealy boys and beef-faced boys.
Mr.Grimwig, Oliver Twist Charles Dickens (1812-1870) English novelist.
I have seen thousands of boys and young men, narrow chested, hunched-up, miserable specimens, smoking endless cigarettes, many of them betting.
The fact that boys are allowed to exist at all is evidence of a remarkable Christian forbearance among men.
Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914) American author.
All my life I have loved a womanly woman and admired a manly man, but I never could stand a boily boy.
Lord Rosebery (1847-1929) British Liberal Politician, Prime minister.
Boys are capital fellows in their own way, among their mates; but they are unwholesome companions for grown people.
Charles Lamb (1775-1834) English essayist, critic.
Boys will be boys, and so will a lot of middle aged men.
God bless all little boys who look like Puck,
With wide eyes, wider months and stickout ears,
Rash little boys who stay alive by luck
And heaven’s favor in this world of tears.
Arthur Guiterman, Blessing of Little Boys.
The boy stood on the burning deck.
Whence all but him had field;
The fiame that lit the battle’s wreck
Shone round him O’er the dead.
Felicia D.Hemans, Casabianca.
I remember, I remember
The fir trees dark and high;
I used to think their slender tops
Were close against the sky;
It was a childish ignorance,
But now ‘tis little Joy
To know I’m farther of? From heaven
Than when I was a boy.
Across the fields of yesterday
He sometimes comes to me,
A little lad just back from play
The lad I used to be.
When I was a beggarly boy,
And lived in a cellar damp
I had not a friend nor a toy.
But I had Aladdin’s lamp.
The smiles and tears of boyhood’s years. The words of love then spoken.
When that I was a little tiny boy,
With hey, ho, wind the rain;
A foolish thing was but a toy,
For the rain it raineth every day.
Blessings on thee, little man,
Barefoot boy. With cheek of tani
With thy turned-up pantaloons,
And thy merry whistled tunes.
