* Bashfulness is an ornament to youth, but a reproach to old age.
- Aristotle

- Plutarch

No touch of bashfulness?”

Samuel Johnson quotes (English Poet, Critic and Writer. 1709-1784)

 

 * Modesty is the graceful, calm virtue of maturity; bashfulness the charm of vivacious youth.
- Mary Wollstonecraft

- Charles Caleb Colton

Joseph Addison quotes (English Essayist, Poet, Dramatist and Statesman, 1672-1719)
