There are too many of us, he thought. There are billions of us and that’s too many. Nobody knows anyone. Strangers come and violate you. Strangers come and cut your heart out. Strangers come and take your blood. Good God, who were those men? I never saw them before in my life!
Ray Bradbury
Men love to blame demons when their grand plans unravel.
Tywin Lannister, Game Of Thrones
Men win wars, not magic tricks.
Bronn, Game Of Thrones
Only real men cry, and even ‘realer’ men tell other men that they cry.
Damon Lindelof
What luck for rulers that men do not think.
Adolf Hitler
I am beginning with the young. We older ones are used up. Yes, we are old already. We are rotten to the marrow. We have no unrestrained instincts left. We are cowardly and sentimental. We are bearing the burden of a humiliating past, and have in our blood the dull recollection of serfdom and servility. But my magnificent youngsters! Are there finer ones anywhere in the world? Look at these young men and boys! What material! With them, I can make a new world.
Adolf Hitler
I think that you appreciate that there are extraordinary men and women and extraordinary moments when history leaps forward on the backs of these individuals, that what can be imagined can be achieved, that you must dare to dream, but that there’s no substitute for perseverance and hard work and teamwork because no one gets there alone; and that, while we commemorate the… the greatness of these events and the individuals who achieve them, we cannot forget the sacrifice of those who make these achievements and leaps possible.
Dana Scully, The X-Files
I wouldn’t get a hard on looking at a bloke but I like the idea of bisexuality. I’m more homosexual than Brett Anderson. And as far as bisexuality goes, I’ve had a little taste of that particular fruit, or I’ve been tasted, you might say. But when you get down to it, you can’t beat a good pair of tits.
Damon Albarn
For men, I think, love is a thing formed of equal parts lust and astonishment. The astonishment part women understand. The lust part they only think they understand.
Stephen King, Bag Of Bones
Only the wisest and stupidest of men never change.
Confucius
