Famous quotes containing the words young and/or prize:
““... I have what no young man can have
Because he loves too much.
Words I have that can pierce the heart,
But what can he do but touch?”
Day-break and a candle end.
”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“He saw, he wish’d, and to the prize aspir’d.
Resolv’d to win, he meditates the way,
By force to ravish, or by fraud betray;
For when success a lover’s toil attends,
Few ask, if fraud or force attain’d his ends.”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
