Young Adult Literature

Famous quotes containing the words young, adult and/or literature:

    “Never shall a young man,
    Thrown into despair
    By those great honey-coloured
    Ramparts at your ear,
    Love you for yourself alone
    And not your yellow hair.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Aleister Crowley (1875–1947)

    If a nation’s literature declines, the nation atrophies and decays.
