Fair Youth

Famous quotes containing the words fair and/or youth:

    The heavens hold firm
    The walls of thy dear honor; keep unshaked
    That temple, thy fair mind, that thou mayst stand
    T’ enjoy thy banished lord and this great land!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The complete life, the perfect pattern, includes old age as well as youth and maturity. The beauty of the morning and the radiance of noon are good, but it would be a very silly person who drew the curtains and turned on the light in order to shut out the tranquillity of the evening. Old age has its pleasures, which, though different, are not less than the pleasures of youth.
    W. Somerset Maugham (1874–1965)
