A man can never quite understand a boy, even when he has been a boy.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
Boys will be boys, and so will a lot of middle-aged men.
Kin Hubbard
The glory of the nation rests in the character of her men. And character comes from boyhood. Thus every boy is a challenge to his elders.
Herbert Hoover
Every genuine boy is a rebel and an anarch. If he were allowed to develop according to his own instincts, his own inclinations, society would undergo such a radical transformation as to make the adult revolutionary cower and cringe.
John Andrew Holmes
One of the best things in the world to be is a boy; it requires no experience, but needs some practice to be a good one.
Charles Dudley Warner
One boy is worth half a man Two boys are worth half a boy Three boys are no help at all.
Unknown
Boys are beyond the range of anybody's sure understanding, at least when they are between the ages of 18 months and 90 years.
James Thurber
There is nothing so aggravating as a fresh boy who is too old to ignore and too young to kick.
Kin Hubbard
The boy who expects every morning to open into a new world finds that today is like yesterday, but he believes tomorrow will be different
Charles Dudley Warner
A boy can learn a lot from a dog: obedience, loyalty, and the importance of turning around three times before lying down.
Robert Benchley
Before he can devote himself to God or a woman, a boy will devote himself to his father, even foolishly, even beyond explanation.
Albom, Mitch
A fairly bright boy is far more intelligent and far better company than the average adult.
John B. S. Haldane
If a man cannot make his point to keen boys in ten minutes, he ought to be shot!
Robert Stephenson Smyth Baden-Powell
