Men
(page 6)
Can you imagine a world without men? No crime and lots of happy fat women.
There are three things men can do with women: love them, suffer for them, or turn them into literature.
I see Americans of every party, every background, every faith who believe that we are stronger together: black, white, Latino, Asian, Native American; young, old; gay, straight; men, women, folks with disabilities, all pledging allegiance under the same proud flag to this big, bold country that we love. That's what I see. That's the America I know!
Just as a candle cannot burn without fire, men cannot live without a spiritual life.
It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men.
Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools because they have to say something.
Men are like wine — some turn to vinegar, but the best improve with age.
Adversity causes some men to break; others to break records.
What does love look like? It has the hands to help others. It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy. It has eyes to see misery and want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men. That is what love looks like.
Brave men rejoice in adversity, just as brave soldiers triumph in war.
The tragedy of life is in what dies inside a man while he lives — the death of genuine feeling, the death of inspired response, the awareness that makes it possible to feel the pain or the glory of other men in yourself.
The vote is the most powerful instrument ever devised by man for breaking down injustice and destroying the terrible walls which imprison men because they are different from other men.
We will be protected by the great men and women of our military and law enforcement and, most importantly, we are protected by God.
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 we desire a society in which men are brothers, then we must act towards one another with brotherhood. If we can build such a society, then we would have achieved the ultimate goal of human freedom.
Men go abroad to wonder at the heights of mountains, at the huge waves of the sea, at the long courses of the rivers, at the vast compass of the ocean, at the circular motions of the stars, and they pass by themselves without wondering.
Do not pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men!
People of mediocre ability sometimes achieve outstanding success because they don't know when to quit. Most men succeed because they are determined to.
When I was a child, I was raised Catholic. Somewhere, I didn't fit with the saints and holy men. I discovered the monsters — in Boris Karloff, I saw a beautiful, innocent creature in a state of grace, sacrificed by sins he did not commit.
I shall argue that strong men, conversely, know when to compromise and that all principles can be compromised to serve a greater principle.
