Famous quotes containing the words dear and/or boys:
“... his voice and hands,
Within whose warm spring rain of loving care
Each dwells some twenty seconds. Now, dear child,
What’s wrong, the deep American voice demands,
And, scarcely pausing, goes into a prayer
Directing God about this eye, that knee.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“Men get opinions as boys learn to spell,
By reiteration chiefly.”
—Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)
