Man Quotes (page 435)

Blow, winds, and crack your cheeks! Rage! Blow! You cataracts and hurricanoes, spout Till you have drenched our teeples, drowned the cocks! You sulphurour and thought-executing fires, Vaunt-couriers to oak-cleaving thunderbolts, Singe my white head! And thou, all-shaking thunder, Strike flat the thick rotundity o' the world! Crack nature's molds, all germens spill at once That make ingrateful man! William Shakespeare

How would you know if you were the last man on Earth? He said. I don't guess you would know it. You'd just be it. Nobody would know it. It wouldn't make any difference. When you die it's the same as if everybody else died too. Cormac McCarthy
Oscar Wilde quote: "The man who could call a spade a spade should be compelled to..."

Jane Austen quote: "Shall I ask you how the church is to be filled, if a man is..."

One of the Georges - I forget which - once said that a certain number of hours sleep each night - I cannot recall at the moment how many - made a man something which for the time being has slipped my memory. P. G. Wodehouse
Human misery must somewhere have a stop; there is no wind that always blows a storm; great good fortune comes to failure in the end. All is change; all yields its place and goes; to persevere, trusting in what hopes he has, is courage in a man. The coward despairs. Euripides
James Mackintosh quote: "The powers of a man's mind are directly proportioned to the..."
The powers of a man's mind are directly proportioned to the quantity of coffee he drinks. James Mackintosh

It is not for me to judge another man's life. I must judge, I must choose, I must spurn, purely for myself. For myself, alone. Herman Hesse
