I mean to make myself a man, and if I succeed in that, I shall succeed in everything else.
- Garfield, James A.
Men Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Men

1.
I love the male body, it's better designed than the male mind.
Newman, Andrea

2.
A man is in love when something in his head, something in his and chest and something in his pants react to a certain woman.
Hwang, Brian

3.
A hairy body, and arms stiff with bristles, give promise of a manly soul.
Juvenal, (Decimus Junius Juvenalis)

4.
No man flatters the woman he truly loves.
Tuckerman

5.
Unlike femininity, relaxed masculinity is at bottom empty, a limp nullity. While the female body is full of internal potentiality, the male is internally barren. Manhood at the most basic level can be validated and expressed only in action.
Gilder, George

6.
It is a man's world, and you men can have it.
Porter, Katherine Anne

7.
During the feminist seventies men were caught between a rock and a hard-on; in the fathering eighties they are caught between good hugs and bad hugs.
King, Florence

8.
In the United States adherence to the values of the masculine mystique makes intimate, self-revealing, deep friendships between men unusual.
Miedzian, Myriam

9.
Only when manhood is dead -- and it will perish when ravaged femininity no longer sustains it -- only then will we know what it is to be free.
Dworkin, Andrea

10.
The male has been persuaded to assume a certain onerous and disagreeable role with the promise of rewards -- material and psychological. Women may in the first place even have put it into his head. BE A MAN! may have been, metaphorically, what Eve uttered at the critical moment in the garden of Eden.
Lewis, Wyndham

11.
Masculinity is not something given to you, but something you gain. And you gain it by winning small battles with honor.
Mailer, Norman

12.
Because it is in the nature of things that they become extreme, we have passed down from manliness to cruelty. If I had been told when I was 20 that there was a tavern in the town where the brave and the cruel were gathered together, I would have run all the way and I would have gone up to the largest and leatheriest of the denizens and said: If you truly love me, kill the bartender.
Crisp, Quentin

13.
It is funny the two things most men are proudest of is the thing that any man can do and doing does in the same way, that is being drunk and being the father of their son.
Stein, Gertrude

14.
Providing for one's family as a good husband and father is a water-tight excuse for making money hand over fist. Greed may be a sin, exploitation of other people might, on the face of it, look rather nasty, but who can blame a man for doing the best for his children?
Figes, Eva

15.
Someone has to stand up for wimps.
Ehrenreich, Barbara

16.
Men are the enemies of women. Promising sublime intimacy, unequalled passion, amazing security and grace, they nevertheless exploit and injure in a myriad subtle ways. Without men the world would be a better place: softer, kinder, more loving; calmer, quieter, more humane.
Oakley, Ann

17.
The world men inhabit is rather bleak. It is a world full of doubt and confusion, where vulnerability must be hidden, not shared; where competition, not co-operation, is the order of the day; where men sacrifice the possibility of knowing their own children and sharing in their upbringing, for the sake of a job they may have chosen by chance, which may not suit them and which in many cases dominates their lives to the exclusion of much else.
Ford, Anna

18.
Macho doesn't prove mucho.
Gabor, Zsa Zsa

19.
The tragedy of machismo is that a man is never quite man enough.
Greer, Germaine

20.
The question arises as to whether it is possible not to live in the world of men and still to live in the world.
Bernikow, Louise

21.
Left to itself the masculine imagination has very little appreciation for the here and now; it prefers to dwell on what is absent, on what has been or may be. If men are more punctual than women, it is because they know that, without the external discipline of clock time, they would never get anything done.
Auden, W. H.

22.
I go for two kinds of men. The kind with muscles, and the kind without.
West, Mae

23.
I'm not the man to balk at a low smell, I not the man to insist on asphodel. This sounds like a He-fellow, don't you think? It sounds like that. I belch, I bawl, I drink.
Sitwell, Dame Edith

24.
A woman simply is, but a man must become. Masculinity is risky and elusive. It is achieved by a revolt from woman, and it is confirmed only by other men. Manhood coerced into sensitivity is no manhood at all.
Paglia, Camille

25.
Men are not to be told anything they might find too painful; the secret depths of human nature, the sordid physicalities, might overwhelm or damage them. For instance, men often faint at the sight of their own blood, to which they are not accustomed. For this reason you should never stand behind one in the line at the Red Cross donor clinic.
Atwood, Margaret

26.
The things a man has to have are hope and confidence in himself against odds, and sometimes he needs somebody, his pal or his mother or his wife or God, to give him that confidence. He's got to have some inner standards worth fighting for or there won't be any way to bring him into conflict. And he must be ready to choose death before dishonor without making too much song and dance about it. That's all there is to it.
Gable, Clark

27.
There is hardly an American male of my generation who has not at one time or another tried to master the victory cry of the great ape as it issued from the androgynous chest of Johnny Weissmuller, to the accompaniment of thousands of arms and legs snapping during attempts to swing from tree to tree in the backyards of the Republic.
Vidal, Gore

28.
Considering the absence of legal coercion, the surprising thing is that men have for so long, and, on the whole, so reliably, adhered to what we might call the breadwinner ethic.
Ehrenreich, Barbara

29.
The most unhappy and frail creatures are men and yet they are the proudest.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

30.
Men aren't the way they are because they want to drive women crazy; they've been trained to be that way for thousands of years. And that training makes it very difficult for men to be intimate.
Angelis, Barbara De

31.
Some men demand rough treatment everywhere!
Hall, S. C.

32.
Don't accept rides from strange men, and remember that all men are as strange as hell.
Morgan, Robin

33.
The man, most man, works best for men: and, if most man indeed, he gets his manhood plainest from his soul.
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett

34.
I mean to make myself a man, and if I succeed in that, I shall succeed in everything else.
Garfield, James A.

35.
Some men are like nails, very easily drawn; others however are more like rivets never drawn at all.
Burroughs, John

36.
The little man is still a man.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

37.
Sometimes I have a notion that what might improve the situation is to have women take over the occupations of government and trade and to give men their freedom. Let them do what they are best at. While we scrawl interoffice memos and direct national or extranational affairs, men could spend all their time inventing wheels, peering at stars, composing poems, carving statues, exploring continents -- discovering, reforming, or crying out in a sacramental wilderness. Efficiency would probably increase, and no one would have to worry so much about the Gaza Strip or an election.
Mcginley, Phyllis

38.
Men are creatures with eight hands.
Mansfield, Jane

39.
Bloody men are like bloody buses -- you wait for about a year and as soon as one approaches your stop two or three others appear.
Cope, Wendy

40.
To call a man an animal is to flatter him; he's a machine, a walking dildo.
Solanis, Valerie

41.
The intimate revelations of young men, or at least the terms in which they express them, are usually plagiaristic and marred by obvious suppressions.
Fitzgerald, F. Scott

42.
The Ideal Man should talk to us as if we were goddesses, and treat us as if we were children. He should refuse all our serious requests, and gratify every one of our whims. He should encourage us to have caprices, and forbid us to have missions. He should always say much more than he means, and always mean much more than he says.
Wilde, Oscar

43.
A bachelor is a man who comes to work each morning from a different direction.
Aleichem, Sholom

44.
As long as male behavior is taken to be the norm, there can be no serious questioning of male traits and behavior. A norm is by definition a standard for judging; it is not itself subject to judgment.
Miedzian, Myriam

45.
Prudent men woo thrifty women.
Proverb, German

46.
Poor little men, poor little cocks! As soon as they're old enough, they swell their plumage to be conquerors. If they only knew that it's enough to be just a little bit wounded and sad in order to obtain everything without fighting for it.
Anouilh, Jean

47.
Men's private self-worlds are rather like our geographical world's seasons, storm, and sun, deserts, oases, mountains and abysses, the endless-seeming plateaus, darkness and light, and always the sowing and the reaping.
Baldwin, Faith

48.
Not only is it harder to be a man, it is also harder to become one.
Stassinopoulos, Arianna

49.
I only like two kinds of men; domestic and foreign.
West, Mae

50.
There must be some reason why a man must be convinced, while a woman must be persuaded.
Fleming, Robert B.
