A Quote by Wallace G. Wilkinson

Scouting exposes young men to people and experiences that encourage and nurture positive moral values. But we mustn't take Scouting for granted. You can do nothing more important for young people today than to continue, or begin, your support of Scouting. I have never met anyone with devoted Scouting experience who was not a solid citizen, a loyal friend, and a patriot. We need more of them.

No parent should be denied from their Scouting - their son's Scouting experience simply because those parents happen to be gay.

Gwen Ifill

Our position has never been that people should be forced out of Scouting. We have always said that the values of Scouting are universal they should be welcome to everyone who is willing to live by the Scout oath and the Scout law.

Gwen Ifill

I think, generally speaking as a player, when I hear the word 'scout,' it's usually, 'The Seattle Storm are playing the L.A. Sparks tomorrow; the assistant coaches are scouting the L.A. Sparks.' And then they come to us and give a scouting report on the players and the team.

Sue Bird

I think people love nature after they experience it. I know I experienced it as a young man - I took a lot of hikes, I was involved in scouting.

Ed Begley, Jr.

Scouting contributes to a boy's preparation to hold the priesthood of God. Scout leaders have a sacred responsibility. They help boys learn Scouting principles that also help them live the gospel. We thank each leader as they foster faith in Christ and prepare boys to make temple covenants and become a missionary, husband, and father.

think it's easy to find girls in climates where their bodies are exposed. Obviously, if you go scouting in Alaska, you're not going to find anybody because they're always covered up. Anywhere there's a beach is great for scouting. And state fairs. I've gone to a lot of state fairs.

Michael Flutie

Scouting is nothing less than applied Christianity.

Robert Baden-Powell

I was very fortunate that I had a great scouting staff at Everton from the academy, because it was those people who got the likes of Ross Barkley and Wayne Rooney when they were young.

David Moyes

As a young boy, scouting gave me a confidence and camaraderie that is hard to find in modern life.

Bear Grylls

Once scouting fully opens its doors to all who desire the same experience that so fully enriched me as a young person, I will be happy to reconsider a role on the advisory board.

Steven Spielberg

A boy on joining wants to begin Scouting right away.

Baden Powell de Aquino

I was discovered out of nowhere. I didn't have family that was in the industry. I didn't know anyone in L.A.; I didn't have any reason to have been discovered. Nowadays, you have YouTube, and people are scouting more, but I really was plucked out of obscurity.

Bonnie McKee

I look at scouting reports, but don't let them dictate what I'm throwing.

Tim Hudson

Scouting is important. You just want to know whom you are playing against and how to play them well within the team's defense.

Terry Rozier

You know the cycling federation in the U.K. did a good job of going around schools and scouting young riders. The Belgian federation is not like that. It is asleep.
