“The most important object in Boy Scout training is to educate, not instruct.”
Sir Robert Baden-Powell
“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
“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
“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
“If you're a Boy Scout on Mars with a compass, you're lost.”
Jack Connerney
“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
“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
