Manhood is melted into courtesies, valor into compliment, and men are only turned into tongue, and trim ones, too.
William Shakespeare
Image
Manhood coerced into sensitivity is no manhood at all.
Camille Paglia
Image
Manhood is patience. Mastery is nine time patience
Ursula K. Le Guin
Image
Twice in my lifetime the long arm of destiny has reached across the oceans and involved the entire life and manhood of the United States in a deadly struggle.There was no use in saying We don't want it we won
Winston Churchill
Image
The history of the American Negro is the history of this strife, - this longing to attain self-conscious manhood, to merge his double self into a better and truer self. In this merging he wishes neither of the older selves to be lost... He simply wishes to make it possible for a man to be both a Negro and an American.
W. E. B. Du Bois
Image
Then hush thee, my darling, take rest while you may, For strife comes with manhood, and waking with day.
Walter Scott
Image
I'd like to go back and revisit the Flash/Captain Cold relationship, because that to me has been the heart of it all along. My impression is that The Flash is a show about a boy's journey into manhood. For the Flash character, there is a variety of male models presented to him, and Captain Cold is one of them.

Superheroes are mostly aimed at young teen-age males concerned with their manhood. The medium will have to address itself more to content. . . . I see 22 year olds draw massive Schwarzenegger types, outfitted with metal studs, pressing a mostly naked woman to their breastplates. And I think Poor girl, thats got to be cold.
Will Eisner
Image
God tested Abraham. Temptation is not meant to make us fail it is meant to confront us with a situation out of which we emerge stronger than we were. Temptation is not the penalty of manhood it is the glory of manhood.
William Barclay
Image
Some day we hope to liberate every man on earth from the tendency as old as human history to identify our strength and manhood with the ability to control the lives, limit the chances, and doom the dreams of women and girls.
William J. Clinton
Image
There's neither honesty, manhood, nor good fellowship in thee.
William Shakespeare
Image
The childhood of today is the manhood of tomorrow
William Wordsworth
Image
My wants are simple. I have no desire to latch onto a monster symbol of fate and power and prove my manhood in titanic piscine war. But sometimes I do like a couple of cooperative fish of frying size.
John Steinbeck
Image
Trouble teaches men how much there is in manhood.
Henry Ward Beecher
Image
I want to play a real man in all my films, and I define manhood simply: men should be tough, fair, and courageous, never petty, never looking for a fight, but never backing down from one either.
John Wayne
Image
Christianity is simply the ideal form of manhood represented to us by Jesus Christ.
Henry Ward Beecher
Image
In times past there were rituals of passage that conducted a boy into manhood, where other men passed along the wisdom and responsibilities that needed to be shared. But today we have no rituals. We are not conducted into manhood we simply find ourselves there.
Kent Nerburn
Image
Badgered, snubbed and scolded on the one hand petted, flattered and indulged on the other-it is astonishing how many children work their way up to an honest manhood in spite of parents and friends. Human nature has an element of great toughness in it.
Henry Ward Beecher
Image
That is why your sacrifice was all the more difficult. You chose to be a hero not through enchantment but through your own manhood.
Lloyd Alexander
Image
I won't do anything for money. I won't compromise my manhood.
Ice Cube
Image
Spend time with your kids and have your own ideas about what they need. It won't take away your manhood it will give it to you.
Louis C. K.
Image
When someone tells a man to be a man, they mean that there is a way to be a man. A man is not just a thing to be-it is also a way to be, a path to follow and a way to walk. Some try to make manhood mean everything. Others believe that it means nothing at all. Being good at being a man can't mean everything, and it has always meant something.
Jack Donovan
Image
A graceful and blessed old age must have three elements in it: a happy retrospect, a peaceful present, and an inspiring future. And old age cannot have either one of these three if the youth has been wasted and manhood has been misspent.
Lyman Abbott
Image
A nation is not worthy to be saved if, in the hour of its fate, it will not gather up all its jewels of manhood and life, and go down into the conflict however bloody and doubtful, resolved on measureless ruin or complete success.
James A. Garfield
