Men Quotes
-
Verily, a man should not cling to those who have passed, for he will likely neglect service to the living.
Wayne Gerard Trotman
-
The fate of peoples is made like this, two men in small rooms. Forget the coronations, the conclaves of cardinals, the pomp and processions. This is how the world changes: a counter pushed across a table, a pen stroke that alters the force of a phrase, a woman's sigh as she passes and leaves on the air a trail of orange flower or rose water; her hand pulling close the bed curtain, the discreet sigh of flesh against flesh.
Hilary Mantel
-
That big guy, Winfield, at 6'6", can do things only a small man can do.
Jerry Coleman
-
Abortion sheds that innocent blood. Now, as a servant of the Lord, I dutifully warn those who advocate and practice abortion that they incur the wrath of Almighty God, who declared, "If men... hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart from her . . . he shall be surely punished."
Russell M. Nelson
-
Pin thy faith to no man's sleeve. Hast thou not two eyes of thy own?
Thomas Carlyle
-
Man is messy, but any creature that can create space vehicles can probably cope.
George Will
-
Black women must challenge black men to live up to their best in every arena of the culture - at job, at home, in school and in religious arenas.
Michael Eric Dyson
-
Let every man, if possible, gather some good books under his roof.
William Ellery Channing
-
Some men do as much begrudge others a good name, as they want one themselves: and perhaps that is the reason of it.
William Penn
-
He likes you, Zara. He took care of you. That's what men do when they take a shine to you.
Carrie Jones
-
I grow more and more suspicious of the political powers that take men away from their work and set them shooting one another.
Helen Keller
-
God is undoubtedly ready to pardon whenever the sinner turns. Therefore, he does not will his death, in so far as he wills repentance. But experience shows that this will, for the repentance of those whom he invites to himself, is not such as to make him touch all their hearts. Still, it cannot be said that he acts deceitfully; for though the external word only renders, those who hear it, and do not obey it, inexcusable, it is still truly regarded as an evidence of the grace by which he reconciles men to himself.
John Calvin
-
There is nothing that we can properly call our own but our time, and yet everybody fools us out of it who has a mind to do it. If a man borrows a paltry sum of money, there must needs be bonds and securities, and every common civility is presently charged upon account. But he who has my time thinks he owes me nothing for it, though it be a debt that gratitude itself can never repay.
Seneca the Younger
-
We men are wretched things.
Homer
-
And this is the ultimate lesson that our knowledge of the mode of transmission of typhus has taught us: Man carries on his skin a parasite, the louse. Civilization rids him of it. Should man regress, should he allow himself to resemble a primitive beast, the louse begins to multiply again and treats man as he deserves, as a brute beast. This conclusion would have endeared itself to the warm heart of Alfred Nobel. My contribution to it makes me feel less unworthy of the honour which you have conferred upon me in his name.
Charles Nicolle
-
In freeing myself from the romantic dream of finding another man to come along and rescue me, I learned that no one can rescue me except myself.
Erica Jong
-
Does the burden of “do it yourself” fall harder on women than men?
Emily Matchar
-
When I said I was born a feminist, I was born thinking woman are equal to men, if not stronger than men. That's the way I always was.
Ingrid Michaelson
