I have but one system of ethics for men and for nations - to be grateful, to be faithful to all engagements under all circumstances, to be open and generous, promoting in the long run even the interests of both
Thomas Jefferson
Image
I didn’t look to the shore much after this first long and memorable glimpse. I looked up at Heaven and her court of mythical creatures fixed forever in the all powerful and inscrutable stars. Ink black was the night beyond them, and they so like jewels that old poetry came back to me, the sound even of hymns sung only by men.
Anne Rice

I think Elvis is the sexiest man to ever walk the earth, I love him.
Britney Spears

May Allah show mercy upon the man who shows me my faults.
Umar

….it was a brave man’s fear. I knew what he meant. What must a brave general feel when he knows the battle has gone against him and nothing remains but death?
Anne Rice
Image
A man should be like a child with his wives, but if they need him, he should act like a man

Maybe a new religion will rise now. Maybe without it, man will crumble in cynicism and selfishness because he really needs his gods.
Anne Rice

We are very lucky to be men because women have a terrible time getting older parts. It's much more difficult.
Ian Mckellen

To play the trumpet, you must train your lips for a long time. When I was twelve or thirteen I was a good player, but I lost the skill and now I play very badly. I do it every day even so. The reason is that I want to return to my childhood. For me, the trumpet is evidence of the sort of young man I was.
Umberto Eco
Image
the first quality of an honest man is contempt for religion, which would have us afraid of the most natural thing in the world, which is death and would have us hate the one beautiful thing destiny has given us, which is life.
Umberto Eco
Image
Thus we have on stage two men, each of whom knows nothing of what he believes the other knows, and to deceive each other reciprocally both speak in allusions, each of the two hoping (in vain) that the other holds the key to his puzzle.
Umberto Eco
Image
How beautiful was the spectacle of nature not yet touched by the often perverse wisdom of man!
Umberto Eco
Image
The greatest create of power you have on earth, whether you are an angel, a spirit, a man or woman or child is to help others.
Anne Rice
Image
If you would convince a man that he does wrong, do right. Men will believe what they see.
Henry David Thoreau
Image
I meant to write a song of battle, for storied deeds of war inspire I seemed to hear the cannon thunder, I seemed to see the smoke and fire. But oh, the pathos of the ending when brave men conquered in the fight, knelt, kissing yielded blood-stained colors!--my eyes are blurred, I cannot write.

I've always felt that even though a man was not a Christian, he still has to know the truth some way or another. Or if he was a Christian, he could know the truth. The truth itself doesn't have any name on it to me. And each man has to find this for himself, I think.
John Coltrane
Image
When men stop believing in God, it isn't that they then believe in nothing: they believe in everything.
Umberto Eco
Image
Silence is the safest course for any man to adopt who distrust himself.
Francois de La Rochefoucauld
Image
The men who cannot laugh at themselves frighten me even more than those who laugh at everything.
Anne Perry
Image
Men are generally idle, and ready to satisfy themselves, and intimidate the industry of others, by calling that impossible which is only difficult.
Samuel Johnson
Image
Men We Reaped is a fiercely felt meditation on the value of life that at once reminds us of its infinite worth and indicts us - as a society - for our selective, casual complicity in devaluing it. Ward's account of these losses is founded in a compelling emotional honesty, and graced with moments of stark poetry.
Peter Ho Davies
Image
Knowledge is dangerous and men lie and the world changes, whether I want it to or not.
Patrick Ness
Image
But it has often happened that I have found the most seductive depictions of sin in the pages of those very men of incorruptible virtue who condemned their spell and their effects.
Umberto Eco
Image
Men are no more immune from emotions than women we think women are more emotional because the culture lets them give free vent to certain feelings, feminine ones, that is, no anger please, but it's okay to turn on the waterworks.
