Quotes about 1950s and Friendship
1950s Quotes

Please enjoy these Quotes about 1950s and Friendship from my collection of Friendship quotes.

Personally, I have fond memories of playing
on slippery rocks on the banks of a rushing river
as a child and hitchhiking in college.
To those who say, "But times are different now,"
I reply that statistically life is much safer now
than in the 1950s, with regard to both crime and accidents.
What has changed is our attitudes.
In those years, a broken leg from falling off a swing
or the back of a tractor was just part of childhood -
an excuse for gathering autographs.
Today that broken leg would be a source
of outrage and probably lawsuits.
I long for a simpler time when life was taken less seriously.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

behind you in the supermarket checkout line
is occasionally going to think that you are doing it all wrong.
Don't take it personally.
