“I was in the Boy Scouts for about four years until my troop disbanded. It is really one of the best activities youths can get involved in and nearly every scout I have known has been a class act due to the discipline the Scouts have instilled in them.”
Ted Stevens
“This is a great chance for boys to advance in rank. Most of the local Boy Scout troops are small, and this university gives them a chance to benefit from several adults with varied expertise.”
Chuck Robinson
“I was an Eagle Scout -- I love the Boy Scouts. But on this one they're wrong. I do believe the Boy Scouts of America need to improve their lightning safety.”
William Roeder
“The most important object in Boy Scout training is to educate, not instruct.”
Sir Robert Baden-Powell
“I was never a Boy Scout, but oh, I wanted to be one when I was a kid about ten or eleven years old. But there wasn't anyplace where I could ever join the Boy Scouts.”
Carl Barks
“When I was a boy, there wasn't too many after school activities out there, like the Boy Scouts. Now scouting competes with so many things. When I was really young, the socialization was the biggest thing I learned and later the leadership skills.”
Dave Baltes
“If you're a Boy Scout on Mars with a compass, you're lost.”
