Look at these young men and boys! What material! With them, I can make a new world.

Adolf Hitler

The whole of education should be designed so as to occupy a boy's free time in cultivation of his body.

I dread handshakes. I've got some problems with my hands, and everywhere I go, people want to impress me with their grip. To make it worse, now women are coming up with that firm shake. So I'll say, 'Gimme five!' If a boy wants a handshake, I'll just give him a hug.
