“A REAL man, the kind of man a woman wants to give her life to, is one who will respect her dignity, who will honor her like the valuable treasure she is. A REAL man will not attempt to rip her precious pearl from it's protective shell, or persuade her with charm to give away her treasure prematurely, but he will wait patiently until she willingly gives him the prize of her heart. A REAL man will cherish and care for that prize forever.” MenWantGivingHeartKindRealCareWaitingForeverHonorDignityValuableTreasureCharmPrizeCherishShellsPearlsRipProtectiveReal MenWomen WantRespect Her Book:When God Writes Your Love Story (Expanded Edition): The Ultimate Guide to Guy/Girl Relationships Source: When God Writes Your Love Story (Expanded Edition): The Ultimate Guide to Guy/Girl Relationships
“Being carefree, you can fit in anywhere. If you’re not carefree you keep on bumping up against things. Your life becomes so narrow, so tight; it gets very claustrophobic. Carefree means being wide open from within, not constricted. Carefree doesn’t mean careless. It is not that you don’t care about others, not that you don’t have compassion or are unfriendly. Carefree is being really simple, from the inside. Dignity is not conceit but rather what shines forth from this carefree confidence.” IfsMeanCareSimpleCompassionFitDignityShiningDon't CareWideBeing RealCarelessConceitCarefreeUnfriendly Author:Tsoknyi Rinpoche
“By default, we have created a "system" of nursing-home care for the aged in which middle-class people pay exorbitant rates to for-profit nursing-home entrepreneurs - and then when private resources are consumed and the patient qualifies as a pauper, the nursing home begins billing Medicaid. This is precisely the antithesis of social citizenship; instead of the poor being accorded the dignity associated with the middle class, equality of treatment is achieved by making the middle class undergo pauperization.” PeopleHomeCareSocialPoorPayClassMiddleResourcesDignityEntrepreneurPatientRateProfitMiddle ClassTreatmentCitizenshipConsumedNursingDefaultAntithesisMedicaidNursing HomeBilling Author:Robert Kuttner
“I knew what it felt like to have no say in who you were as a sexual being. It didn't just strip away your dignity. It stripped away everything you were: your identity, your self-respect, your pleasure. Because it was all about the pleasure of the other person take, take, taking whatever they wanted from you, even if it was uncomfortable, or caused you pain. Even if you died from it, the other person still wouldn't care, because it was all about them.” IfsPersonsStillsSelfCareWantedPainFeltPleasureIdentityDignityDiedUncomfortableSelf Respect Author:Jess C Scott
