Having a
thirteen-year-old in the family is like having a
general-admission ticket to the movies, radio and TV. You
get to understand that the glittering new arts of our
civilization are directed to the teen-agers, and by their
suffrage they stand or fall.
-- Max Lerner
1902-, American Author,
Columnist
Teenage boys,
goaded by their surging hormones run in packs like the
primal horde. They have only a brief season of exhilarating
liberty between control by their mothers and control by
their wives.
-- Camille Paglia
1947-, American Author,
Critic, Educator
When you are
seventeen you aren't really serious.
-- Arthur Rimbaud
1854-1891, French Poet
I would there
were no age between ten and three-and-twenty, or that youth
would sleep out the rest; for there is nothing in the
between but getting wenches with child, wronging the
anciently, stealing, fighting.
-- William Shakespeare
1564-1616, British Poet,
Playwright, Actor
