Man Quotes
-
Perfection is only an ideal for man; it cannot be attained, for man is made imperfect.
Mahatma Gandhi
-
A world without a Sabbath would be like a man without a smile, like summer without flowers, and like a homestead without a garden. It is the most joyous day of the week.
Henry Ward Beecher
-
Every unjust man is unjust against his will.
Plato
-
This man belongs to me, I want him!
Bram Stoker
-
Towards the outside, at any rate, the ego seems to maintain clear and sharp lines of demarcation. There is only one state – admittedly an unusual state, but not one that can be stigmatized as pathological – in which it does not do this. At the height of being in love the boundary between ego and object threatens to melt away. Against all the evidence of his senses, a man who is in love declares that "I" and "you" are one, and is prepared to behave as if it were a fact.
Sigmund Freud
-
The coward calls the brave man rash, the rash man calls him a coward.
Aristotle
-
Now my playmates never failed to wink and smile mockingly at me when one of them called 'Man flies!' for at the word I would always lift my finger very high, as a sign of absolute conviction; and I refused with energy to pay the forfeit. The more they laughed at me, the happier I was, hoping that some day the laugh would be on my side.
Alberto Santos-Dumont
-
In walking through the world there is a choice for a man to make. He can choose the fair and open path, the path which sound ethics, sound democracy, and the common law prescribe, or choose the secret way by which he can get the better of his fellow man.
Ida Tarbell
-
The way is light and fluid for the man with no preferences.
Lao Tzu
-
If we have our own why of life, we shall get along with almost any how. Man does not strive for pleasure; only the Englishman does.
Friedrich Nietzsche
-
We encourage failure among young men; we celebrate it... It's a badge of honour for a man. Yet attach those same words and experiences to a woman, and society writes her off.
Whitney Wolfe Herd
-
Indeed, we may go further and assert that anyone who does not delight in fine actions is not even a good man.
Aristotle
