Man Quotes (page 563)

Am I really admitting that my sister is determined to marry a man she has only seen once and doesn't much like the look of? It is half real and half pretense - and I have an idea that it is a game most girls play when they meet an eligible young men. They just...wonder. Dodie Smith
I believe in children praying--well, women, too, but I rather think God expects men to be more self-reliant. I don't hold with a man everlastingly bothering the Almighty with his silly troubles. Joseph Conrad
There stood a young man who had the figure of a Greek athlete and the face of an English one...Just where he began to be beautiful the clothes started. E. M. Forster
But the truth of his teaching would seem to be this: in our own person and fortune, we should be ready to accept and to pardon all; it is our cheek we are to turn, our coat that we are to give away to the man who has taken our cloak.

The richer and more copious one's vocabulary and the greater one's awareness of fine distinctions and subtle nuances of meaning, the more fertile and precise is likely to be one's thinking. Knowledge of things and knowledge of the words for them grow together. If you do not know the words, you can hardly know the thing. Henry Hazlitt

All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and... Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

If the single man plants himself indomitably on his instincts, and there abides, this huge world will come around to him. Ralph Waldo Emerson
I had to get a close-hand view of the misery and unhappiness of a man made world, before I reached the point where I could successfully revolt against it. Emmeline Pankhurst
No weekends for the gods now. Warsflicker, earth licks its open sores, fresh breakage, fresh promotions, chanceassassinations, no advance. Only man thinning out his own kindsounds through the Sabbath noon, the blindswipe of the pruner and his knifebusy about the tree of life...
