“The lucidity of the battle narratives, the vigor of the prose, the strong feeling for the men from generals to privates who did the fighting, are all controlled by a constant sense of how it happened and what it was all about. Foote has the novelist's feeling for character and situation, without losing the historian's scrupulous regard for recorded fact. The Civil War is likely to stand unequalled.” MenWarCharacterFactsFeelingsFightingStrongSituationHappenedHe ManBattleLosingRegardConstantNarrativeNovelistsCivil WarProseControlledHistorianVigorStrong FeelingLucidity Author:Walter Millis

“But many, many stories were told; from what could be gathered, all fifty of the mine's inhabitants had reacted on each other, two by two, as in combinatorial analysis, that is to say, everyone with all the others, and especially every man with all the women, old maids or married, and every woman with all the men. All I had to do was to select two names at random, better if different sex, and ask a third person, "What happened with those two?" and lo and behold, a splendid story was unfolded for me, since everyone knew the story of everyone else.” IfsMenPersonsTwoDifferentStoriesAsksNamesSexHappenedMinesHe ManMarriedThirdsMathematicsEvery ManAnalysisFiftySplendidSelectMaidsThird PersonOld Maids Author:Primo Levi

“Men feel challenged when a woman is in danger, so those types of stories interest women and they interest men on a level that the crimes against men tend to draw a different visceral reaction.

“Because clearly the most amazing thing had happened: by some chance - no, the lover does not believe in chance, but destiny - destiny had arranged it so that the man and woman who had made the original whole, then somehow divided and separated by an angry God, had met up again, and now must reform the rightful, righteous whole.

“Now the man on duty used to be changed from time to time. Once one of these men, without giving me the slightest warning, without even asking me to leave the footpath, pushed and kicked me into the street. I was dismayed. Before I could question him as to his behaviour, Mr Coates, who happened to be passing the spot on horseback, hailed me and said: 'Gandhi, I have seen everything. I shall gladly be your witness in court if you proceed against the man. I am very sorry you have been so rudely assaulted.'” IfsMenGivingHas BeensSaidUsedHappenedStreetsChangedHe ManDutyAskingCourtSorryPassingPassingsUsed To BeSpotsWitnessWarningBehaviourHorsebackDismayedFootpaths Book:All Men are Brothers: Autobiographical Reflections Source: All Men are Brothers: Autobiographical Reflections
“What happened in the 80's was that all the men died of AIDS. That was a particularly depressing time because so many people passed away and it was a very desperate and lonely time, so I think a lot of people felt that we were somehow, unreceived. Not only by the disease but also by the public image of the disease. It really gave homophobia a real shot in the arm and changed the way people viewed gays, queers. It became an entirely different atmosphere.” PeopleThinkingMenWayDifferentRealFeltHappenedChangedHe ManArmsGayDiseaseShotsLonelyDiedAidsAtmosphereDesperateDepressingHomophobiaPassed AwayPublic Image Author:Margaret Cho
