Even the handsomest men do not have the same momentary effect on the world as a truly beautiful woman does.

All great men are gifted with intuition. They know without reasoning or analysis, what they need to know.

There's a great argument about how many men he actually killed. People would tell stories and then as we all know as stories get told over and over again, they get embellished, facts get changed, elaborated upon, exaggerated.

There are people who said he killed over a hundred men. Historical fact doesn't corroborate one hundred men.

The men resent a woman getting any honour in what they consider is essentially their field. Men painters mostly despise women painters. So I have decided to stop squirming, to throw any honour in with Canada and women.

Where there had been only jeers or taunts at first, crowds come to listen with serious and sympathetic men.

Men of age object too much, consult too long, adventure too little, repent too soon, and seldom drive business home to the full period, but content themselves with a mediocrity of success.

I shall argue that strong men, conversely, know when to compromise and that all principles can be compromised to serve a greater principle.

As I grow older, I pay less attention to what men say. I just watch what they do.

The men who have succeeded are men who have chosen one line and stuck to it.

The 'morality of compromise' sounds contradictory. Compromise is usually a sign of weakness, or an admission of defeat. Strong men don't compromise, it is said, and principles should never be compromised.

If you do not wish a man to do a thing, you had better get him to talk about it; for the more men talk, the more likely they are to do nothing else.

Men seldom, or rather never for a length of time and deliberately, rebel against anything that does not deserve rebelling against.

Men do less than they ought, unless they do all that they can.

It were a real increase of human happiness, could all young men from the age of nineteen be covered under barrels, or rendered otherwise invisible; and there left to follow their lawful studies and callings, till they emerged, sadder and wiser, at the age of twenty-five.
