Girl Guides

Famous quotes containing the words girl and/or guides:

    “A girl I had, but she followed another,
    Money I had, and it went in the night,
    Strong drink I had, and it brought me to sorrow,
    But a good strong cause and blows are delight.”
    All there caught up the tune:
    “On, on, my darling man.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Children can’t make their own rules and no child is happy without them. The great need of the young is for authority that protects them against the consequences of their own primitive passions and their lack of experience, that provides with guides for everyday behavior and that builds some solid ground they can stand on for the future.
    Leontine Young (20th century)
