Manly Quotes (page 104)

We're all dreaming? Arctor said. If the last to know he's an addict is the addict, then maybe the last to know when a man means what he says is the man himself, he reflected. He wondered how much of the garbage that Donna had overheard he had seriously meant. He wondered how much of the insanity of the day--his insanity--had been real, or just induced as a contact lunacy, by the situation. Donna, always, was a pivot point of reality for him; for her this was the basic, natural question. He... Philip K. Dick
The real opposition is that between the ego-bound man, whose existence is structured by the principle of having, and the free man, who has overcome his egocentricity. Erich Fromm
It's all very well to put the government in the hands of the perfect man, but what do you do when the perfect man gets a bellyache? David Eddings
Oscar Wilde quote: "The emotions of man are stirred more quickly than man’s..."
The emotions of man are stirred more quickly than man’s intelligence. Oscar Wilde
But what a feeling can come over a man just from seeing the things he believes in and hopes for symbolized in the concrete form of a man. In something that gives a focus to all the other things he knows to be real. Something that makes unseen things manifest and allows him to come to his hopes and dreams through his outer eye and through the touch and feel of his natural hand. Ralph Ellison
Oscar Wilde quote: "Behind the perfection of a man's style, must lie the passion..."
Behind the perfection of a man's style, must lie the passion of a man's soul. Oscar Wilde
Bertrand Russell quote: "Our great democracies still tend to think that a stupid man is..."
Our great democracies still tend to think that a stupid man is more likely to be honest than a clever man. Bertrand Russell
Tiger got to hunt, bird got to fly; Man got to sit and wonder 'why, why, why?' Tiger got to sleep, bird got to land; Man got to tell himself he understand. Kurt Vonnegut
A strong man cannot help a weaker unless the weaker is willing to be helped, and even then the weak man must become strong of himself; he must, by his own efforts, develop the strength which he admires in another. None but himself can alter his condition. James Allen
Friedrich Nietzsche quote: "In a real man there is a child hidden: it wants to play. Up..."
In a real man there is a child hidden: it wants to play. Up then, you women, and discover the child in man! Friedrich Nietzsche
Christianity is not just involved with "salvation", but with the total man in the total world. The Christian message begins with the existence of God forever, and then with creation. It does not begin with salvation. We must be thankful for salvation, but the Christian message is more than that. Man has a value because he is made in the image of God. Francis Schaeffer
Cheap heroism is always easy, and even to sacrifice life is easy too; because it is only a case of hot blood and an overflow of energy, and there is such a longing for what is beautiful! No, take the deed of heroism that is labourious, obscure, without noise or flourish, slandered, in which there is a great deal of sacrifice and not one grain of glory - in which you, a splendid man, are made to look like a scoundrel before every one, though you might be the most honest man in the world - you... Fyodor Dostoevsky
No one can say 'Hejests at scars who never felt a wound' for I have never for onemoment been in a state of mind to which even the imagination ofserious pain was less than intolerable. If any man is safe from thedanger of under-estimating this adversary, I am that man. C. S. Lewis
I had to originate a philosophical framework of my own, becuase my basic view of man and existence was theories. In order to define, explain and present my concept of man, I had to become a philosopher in the specific meaning of the term. Ayn Rand
[A] woman should have every honorable motive to exertion which is enjoyed by man, to the full extent of her capacities and endowments. The case is too plain for argument. Nature has given woman the same powers, and subjected her to the same earth, breathes the same air, subsists on the same food, physical, moral, mental and spiritual. She has, therefore, an equal right with man, in all efforts to obtain and maintain a perfect existence. Frederick Douglass
