Arthur Miller quote: "A small man can be just as exhausted as a great man."
A small man can be just as exhausted as a great man. Arthur Miller
They sell courage of a sort in the taverns. And another sort, though not for sale, a man can find in the confessional. Try the alehouses and the churches, Hugh. In either a man can be quiet and think. Ellis Peters
In all human love it must be realized that every man promises a woman, and every woman promises a man that which only God alone can give, namely, perfect happiness. One of the reasons why so many marriages are shipwrecked is because as the young couple leave the altar, they fail to realize that human feelings tire and the enthusiasm of the honeymoon is not the same as the more solid happiness of enduring human love.

TIMON Look thee, 'tis so! Thou singly honest man, Here, take: the gods out of my misery. Have sent thee treasure. Go, live rich and happy; But thus condition'd: thou shalt build from men; Hate all, curse all, show charity to none, But let the famish'd flesh slide from the bone, Ere thou relieve the beggar; give to dogs. What thou deny'st to men; let prisons swallow 'em, Debts wither 'em to nothing; be men likeblasted woods, And may diseases lick up their false bloods! And so farewell and... William Shakespeare
Nately was instantly up in arms again. "There is nothing so absurd about risking your life for your country!" he declared."Isn't there?" asked the old man. "What is a country? A country is a piece of land surrounded on all sides by boundaries, usually unnatural. Englishmen are dying for England, Americans are dying for America, Germans are dying for Germany, Russians are dying for Russia. There are now fifty or sixty countries fighting in this war. Surely so many countries can't all be... Joseph Heller
Jean-Jacques Rousseau quote: "I would rather be a man of paradoxes than a man of prejudices."
I would rather be a man of paradoxes than a man of prejudices. Jean-Jacques Rousseau
The solitary and thoughtful stroller finds a singular intoxication in this universal communion. The man who loves to lose himself in a crowd enjoys feverish delights that the egoist locked up in himself as in a box, and the slothful man like a mollusk in his shell, will be eternally deprived of. He adopts as his own all the occupations, all the joys and all the sorrows that chance offers. Charles Baudelaire
Anthony Burgess quote: "A man who cannot choose ceases to be a man."
A man who cannot choose ceases to be a man. Anthony Burgess
but most of all he liked to listen to stories of real life. He smiled gleefully as he listened to such stories, putting in words and asking questions, all aiming at bringing out clearly the moral beauty of the action of which he was told. Attachments, friendships, love, as Pierre understood them, Karataev had none, but he loved and lived on affectionate terms with every creature with whom he was thrown in life, and especially so with man- not with any particular man, but with the men that... Leo Tolstoy
Blaise Pascal quote: "To make a man a saint, it must indeed be by grace; and whoever..."
To make a man a saint, it must indeed be by grace; and whoever doubts this does not know what a saint is, or a man. Blaise Pascal
It has not been for nothing that the word has remained man's principal toy and tool: without the meanings and values it sustains, all man's other tools would be worthless. Lewis Mumford
An offensive war, I believe to be wrong and would therefore have nothing to do with it, having no right to meddle with another man's property, his ox or his ass, his man servant or his maid servant or anything this is his. Daniel Morgan
Blessed be Providence which has given to each his toy: the doll to the child, the child to the woman, the woman to the man, the man to the devil! Victor Hugo
Steve Guttenberg quote: "A gay man can be friends with a straight man. That can happen."
A gay man can be friends with a straight man. That can happen. Steve Guttenberg
A murderer is regarded by the conventional world as something almost monstrous, but a murderer to himself is only an ordinary man. It is only if the murderer is a good man that he can be regarded as monstrous. Graham Greene
