Man Quotes
A young man is not a proper hearer of lectures on political science; for he is inexperienced in the actions that occur in life, but its discussions start from these and are about these; and, further, since he tends to follow his passions, his study will be vain and unprofitable, because the end that is aimed at is not knowledge but action. And it makes no difference whether he is young in years or youthful in character.
Aristotle
The more a man knows, the more willing he is to learn — the less a man knows, the more positive he is that he knows everything.
Tim Page
Wine makes a man better pleased with himself. I do not say that it makes him more pleasing to others. Sometimes it does. But the danger is, that while a man grows better pleased with himself, he may be growing less pleasing to others. Wine gives a man nothing. It neither gives him knowledge nor wit; it only animates a man, and enables him to bring out what a dread of the company has presented.
James Boswell
No man can be a pure specialist without being in the strict sense an idiot.
George Bernard Shaw
If a woman is partial to a man, and does not endeavour to conceal it, he must find it out."
Jane Austen
Morale is faith in the man at the top.
Albert Sidney Johnston
I am quite a positive man in real life. In fact, even when I have a hard discussion with somebody, it lasts only five minutes. Then I forget. And I forgive everything. But at the same time, as I am such an easygoing guy, to create something more intense, I have to be auto-destructive on the making of a film. And this will guarantee some density.
Albert Serra
To expect this larger-than-life, holier-than-thou sort of existence from us is not possible. We as much want to make our own mistake as a man does.
Kangana Ranaut
If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away. If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay.
Oprah Winfrey
It is often said it is no matter what a man believes if he is only sincere. This is true of all minor truths, and false of all truths whose nature it is to fashion a man's life. It will make no difference in a man's harvest whether he thinks turnips have more saccharine matter than potatoes--whether corn is better than wheat. But let the man sincerely believe that seed planted without ploughing is as good as with, that January is as favorable for seed sowing as April, and that cockle seed will produce as good a harvest as wheat, and will it make no difference?
Henry Ward Beecher
A well dressed man is a best accessory a woman can have.
Coco Chanel
A man does not show his greatness by being at one extremity, but rather by touching both at once.
Blaise Pascal
