“Although a government study found that men's health was much worse than women's health or the health of any minority group, headlines around the country read: 'Minorities Face Large Health Care Gap.' They did not say: 'Men Face Large Health Care Gap.' Why? Because we associate the sacrifice of men's lives with the saving of the rest of us, and this association leads us to carry in our unconscious an incentive not to care about men living longer.” MenCountryGovernmentCareFacesFoundStudySacrificeGroupsSavingHealth CareUnconsciousMinoritiesGapsAssociationAssociatesIncentivesHeadlinesMinority GroupsWomen's Health Author:Warren Farrell
“The brother of my grandfather was the patriarch of the Orthodox Church and revered as a saint. So everything in my childhood is about total sacrifice, whether to religion or to communism. This is what is engraved on me. This is why I have this insane willpower. My body is now beginning to be falling apart, but I will do it to the end. I don't care. With me it is about whatever it takes.” EndsBodyCareFallChurchSacrificeChildhoodBrotherSaintDon't CareInsaneCommunismI Don't CareOrthodoxGrandfatherWillpowerFalling ApartMy GrandfatherWhatever It TakesEngravedPatriarchOrthodox Church Author:Marina Abramovic
“Most men appear to think that the art of despotic government is statesmanship, and what men affirm to be unjust and inexpedient in their own case they are not ashamed of practicing towards others; they demand just rule for themselves, but where other men are concerned they care nothing about it. Such behavior is irrational; unless the one party is, and the other is not, born to serve, in which case men have a right to command, not indeed all their fellows, but only those who are intended to be subjects; just as we ought not to hunt mankind, whether for food or sacrifice . .” ThinkingMenArtGovernmentCareBornPartyCasesSacrificeSubjectsMankindHuman NatureOughtDemandBehaviorConcernedFellowsCommandAshamedIrrationalUnjustHuntsStatesmanshipCommand Not Author:Aristotle
“Don't make your wedding a pleasant memory in this life but a source of misery in the next. Make it an eternally good memory. In trying to have a halal wedding, you might sacrifice many relationships but the opposite might mean sacrificing the only relationship that will matter in the hereafter for a bunch of people who don't even really care about you. Don't make one night the cause of your regret for an eternity.” PeopleTryingMeanMatterMightCareNightNextCausesMemoriesSacrificeRegretSourceOppositesEternityMiseryBunchThis LifePleasantOne NightHereafterGood MemoriesOur WeddingHalalPleasant Memories Author:Omar Suleiman
