Man Quotes and Quotations
 There never was such beauty in another man. Nature made him, and then broke the mould. - Ariosto  Let each man think himself an act of God. His mind a thought, his life a breath of God. A man's a man for a' that! Thou pendulum betwixt a smile and tear. We arc the miracle of miracles, the great inscrutable mystery of God. Man's inhumanity to man Makes countless thousands mourn! Every man is a volume, if you know how to read them. There are times when one would like to hang the whole human race, and finish the farce.

Man is a piece of the universe made alive. I decline to accept the end of men... I believe that man will not merely endure: he will prevail. He is immortal not because he alone among creatures has an inexhaustible voice but because he has a soul, a spirit capable of compassion and sacrifice and endurance. God give us men. A time like this demands Strong minds, great hearts, true faith and ready hands! Men whom the lust of office does not kill, Men whom the spoils of office cannot buy, Men who possess opinions and a will, Men who love honor, men who cannot lie.

Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils. - Bible If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too; Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And - which is more - you'll be a man, my son! Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble. - Bible Though I've belted you and flayed you, By the livin' Gawd that made you, You're a better man than I am, Gunga Din. Make ye no truce with Adam-zad - the Bear that walks like a man. It is easier to know mankind in general than man individually. Men, in general, are but great great children. - Napoleon I teach you beyond Man (superman). Man is something that shall be surpassed. What have you done to surpass him?

The rest are bent, but he is a wild beast who walks upright. - Philemon We must laugh at man, to avoid crying for him. - Napoleon Know then thyself, presume not God to scan; The proper study of mankind is man. Man is the measure of all things. Thou hast made him a little lower than the angels. - Bible Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright. - Bible The forgotten man at the bottom of the economic pyramid. Quit yourselves like men. - Bible A man after his own heart. - Bible What a piece of work is a man! how noble in reason! how infinite in faculty! in form and moving how express and admirable! in action how like an angel! in apprehension how like a god! the beauty of the world! the paragon of animals! And, yet, to me, what is this quintessence of dust? man delights not me: no, nor woman neidier, though by your smiling, you seem to say so. Man is a social animal. - Seneca He was a man, take him for all in all, I shall not look upon his like again. His life was gentle, and the elements So mix'd in him that Nature might stand up, And say to all the world, This was a man!
