Men are like your smart phone. Pick up your phone and get into Settings. I can bet that you only know the functionality of that smartphone up to 50 per cent. There are certain functions in that phone you have never tried and you do not know what they are used for. You have never ventured beyond the normal stuff that an ordinary hand set does. Yet, that is your phone. That is exactly the same scenario. That man in your house, plans, thoughts or heart, he remains your man, but I can assure you do not know him 100 per cent.

Man is but a reed, the most feeble thing in nature; but he is a thinking reed. The entire universe need not arm itself to crush him. A vapour, a drop of water suffices to kill him. But if the universe were to crush him, man would still be more noble than that which killed him, because he knows that he dies and the advantage which the universe has over him; the universe knows nothing of this.

REBECCA WEST

The Thinking Reed

Tags: Rebecca West


Aggression is part of the masculine design, we are hardwired for it.... Little girls do not invent games where large numbers of people die, where bloodshed is a prerequisite for having fun. Hockey, for example, was not a feminine creation. Nor was boxing. A boy wants to attack something -- and so does a man, even if it's only a little white ball on a tee.

The only reason why God created man is because he was disappointed with the monkey.

MARK TWAIN

Do you know how hard it is to find a decent man in this town? Most of them think monogamy is some kind of wood.

PEGGY BRANDT (AMY YASBECK)

The hardest man ... is but a shell.

No man ever reaches manhood
till a woman's tenderness
Is a part of his possession.

EDWIN LEIBFREED

"The Conquerors"

Tags: Edwin Leibfreed


Man, a wild beast, cousin of the gorilla, has emerged from the profound darkness of animal instinct into the light of the mind, which explains in a wholly natural way all his past mistakes and partially consoles us for his present errors.

MIKHAIL BAKUNIN

God and the State

Tags: Mikhail Bakunin


Like it or not the role of masculinity is changing and many men are like a deer in headlights and don't which way to turn.

CHRIS FORTE

"Grateful: The Good Men Project Community", The Good Men Project, August 4, 2017


You don't fix a man the way you do a fault in a pipe or a leak in a roof. You take him as he is ... or you don't take him at all.

NORA ROBERTS

Tears of the Moon

Tags: Nora Roberts


They're all alike ... at first they behave very well, they're obedient and prompt and they don't seem capable of killing a fly, but as soon as their beards appear they go to ruin.

Tags: E. L. James


Welcome to the mystery that is men. I think it goes something like, they grow body hair, they lose all ability to tell you what they really want.
