I hate those men who would send into war youth to fight and die for them; the pride and cowardice of those old men, making their wars that boys must die.
~By Mary Roberts Rinehart ~
Looking back, I think we were all quite mature, surprisingly responsible. In earlier wars, boys of our age had just gone off to raise hell or enlist or both, but we stayed dutifully at our desks doing tomorrow's homework.
~By John Knowles ~
If you have to fight a crowd of boys, it's best to go for the biggest one. That way you won't have to fight them all. The others will see that you mean business and you will win their respect.
~By Suzanne Vega ~
Waiting for the end, boys, waiting for the end.
~By William Empson ~
I used to listen to country and western and blues, John Lee Hooker, spirituals, the Bluegrass Boys, and Eddie Arnold. There was a radio station that come on everyday with country, spirituals, and the blues.

~By John Thorn ~

~By Davy Jones ~
The truth is, after Boys Don't Cry, I realized how few and far between the great roles are. I am beyond thankful for finding Million Dollar Baby.

Most movies are made today for teenage boys. Once in a while a good one comes along.

This system of encouragement proves serviceable as a preventive of punishment, the attainment of the tickets being a reward, the forfeiture of them the reverse; and, as such, boys seem often more affected by their loss than by coercion.
~By Joseph Lancaster ~
No one told me about boys. I had to figure it out myself. The first thing I learned was that sometimes they grow slower than women mentally.
~By Elena Anaya ~

~By Michelle Wie ~
The difference between the men and the boys in politics is, and always has been, that the boys want to be something, while the men want to do something.
~By Eric Sevareid ~
I not only urge you to vote that ticket yourself, but I beg that you will persuade others to do so. Personal effort can accomplish a great deal, and I beg that you will use your personal influence with your friends to get them to go with you to save the boys.
~By Thomas Jordan Jarvis ~
Never be possessive. If a female friend lets on that she is going out with another man, be kind and understanding. If she says she would like to go out with the Dallas Cowboys, including the coaching staff, the same rule applies.
~By Bruce Jay Friedman ~
I keep fit by running after my three boys all day.
~By Victoria Beckham ~
I came in with my idea of what a cowboy would wear, but then I met some real cowboys and they said that I rode the horses well, shoed the horses, but no good cowboy would be wearing a pair of Levi's. I had to get a good old pair of Wranglers.

~By Mercedes McCambridge ~
I have twin boys, 12, and a daughter, 17.
~By Lee Majors ~
I truly don't know why the boys are getting all the votes - it could be because they are really amazing, and that's all there is to it. They're really, really good and every single boy deserves to be in the competition right now, and so do the two girls.
~By Pia Toscano ~
She was a great lady. We raised three boys, were together as long as she lived, and now she's passed on.

~By Val Kilmer ~
We moved into the back, made it into a little 50s sitting room and started to sell the records. We had an immediate success. For one thing, these Teddy Boys were thrilled to buy the records.

In every school, more boys wanted to be remembered as a star athlete than as a brilliant student.
~By James S. Coleman ~
The music business looks like, you know, innocent schoolboys compared to the TV business. They care about nothing but profit.
~By Tom Petty ~
The person upon whom the schoolboys' attention centred was, of course, the Headmaster.
~By Georg Brandes ~
I am sure it is one's duty as a teacher to try to show boys that no opinions, no tastes, no emotions are worth much unless they are one's own. I suffered acutely as a boy from the lack of being shown this.
~By A. C. Benson ~
I took up French boys and wine and I studied psychology.
~By Joely Fisher ~

~By Robin Wright Penn ~
We should never forget that Hollywood was built by Europeans, and the old Jewish boys from Eastern Europe.
~By Maximilian Schell ~
It's easy for women to say they don't understand and ask a man for help. As the saying goes, boys play with toys, and girls play with boys.
~By Tom Stewart ~
The Hardy Boys burned me out. I was recharging my batteries. It was time to return to work, but it was tough because my visibility was low.
~By Parker Stevenson ~
Tim on the show does a lot of that posturing, of course, and feels sort of threatened by women. But even at that, you do see him cooking, and ultimately he's a good father because he spends a lot of time with the boys.
~By Patricia Richardson ~
The heroes of our youth grow old - 'the boys of summer in their ruin,' in Dylan Thomas's verse - yet we seem the same.

~By Peter Straub ~
Corey feldman and I did sneak into the screening room one day during Lost Boys.
~By Corey Haim ~
I really believe that's one of the many reasons that God had put me right in the middle of the Backstreet Boys. There are so many stars today that don't realize the impact they have on young people. Being a superstar is great, as long as you can be a positive role model.
~By Brian Littrell ~
We were the Spice Boys.
~By George Harrison ~
With two little boys in diapers, I had to keep it simple if I were going to have a life at all.

~By Andy Kaufman ~
If the Constitution is worth anything, if the Declaration of Independence is worth anything, if the boys who died on the field of battle did not die in vain, fair employment practices are correct and necessary.
~By Dennis Chavez ~
They are imported by companies, controlled as serfs, worked like slaves, and at last go back to China with all their earnings. They are in every place, they seem to have no sex. Boys work, girls work; it is all alike to them.
~By Denis Kearney ~
I can tell you the day The Beach Boys will no longer exist - never. We'll be on stage in wheelchairs.

My favorite teams are the Dallas Cowboys and the New York Jets.

~By Scott Speedman ~
Boys wear their hearts on their sleeves. Even when they're trying to pull one over on you they're so transparent. Like men.
~By Patricia Heaton ~
I used to have a great love for Dostoyevsky and Tolstoy, the big boys of the last century.
~By Norman MacCaig ~
When Bound was released, Boys don't Cry wasn't out yet. Therefore it was very taboo to play a lesbian. I loved the part, because girls never get to play the typical guy parts.

~By Harry Mathews ~
I like everything. Boyish girls, girlish boys, the heavy and the skinny. Which is a problem when I'm walking down the street.
~By Angelina Jolie ~

I think we still believe that ambition is for boys.
~By Jeanette Winterson ~
I love that men like to look at women, that they love sports, that they need to know the inner workings of mechanical objects. I love the whole makeup of men - that they never mature and are always just boys.
~By Krista Allen ~
Dancing on 'Dancing With The Stars' really broadened my fan base. I jumped off the stage backwards one week, and so many women come up to me now and say, 'You're so brave. I can't believe you put yourself out there like that'. If that inspires some girl out there, then great, because boys aren't the only ones who get to have fun. We get to have fun too.
~By Monique Coleman ~
Living in Dallas, I root for the Mavericks and the Stars and the Cowboys, but I've always pulled for the Chicago Cubs. I enjoy watching them play.
