Man Quotes

“God abides in men" "God abides in men, These are men who are simple, they are fields of corn... Such men have minds like wide grey skies, they have the grandeur that the fools call emptiness. God abides in men. Some men are not simple, they live in cities among the teeming buildings, wrestling with forces as strong as the sun and the rain. Often they must forgo dream upon dream... Christ walks in the wilderness in such lives. God abides in men, because Christ has put on the nature of man, like a garment, and worn it to his own shape. He has put on everyone's life... to the workman's clothes to the King's red robes, to the snowy loveliness of the wedding garment... Christ has put on Man's nature, and given him back his humanness... God abides in man.”

“Once upon a time in the land of Shinar, God came down to see the city and the tower. People were united and spoke in one language. Then God confound their language and caused them scattered all over the planet earth. I believe, because of our technology, there will be one computer-based language on earth. Then God will come back again and make us all scattered all over the stars constellation.”

“If you really love a man or a woman, you will be considerate of his or her real needs, but you will not show unnecessary concern for his or her ego desires. You will not fulfill his or her ego, although his or her ego will be demanding. Consideration means that you will see that this is not a real need, but an ego need, and you will not fulfill it.  Love knows compassion, but no concern. Whatever the need, love will be considerate, not concerned. It will not fulfill any unreal need. It will not fulfill any poisonous ideas and desires that will harm the other.”

“And of the sixth day yet remained There wanted yet the master work, the end Of all yet done: a creature who not prone And brute as other creatures but endued With sanctity of reason might erect His stature and, upright with front serene, Govern the rest, self-knowing, and from thence Magnanimous to correspond with Heaven, But grateful to acknowledge whence his good Descends, thither with heart and voice and eyes Directed in devotion to adore And worship God supreme who made him chief Of all His works.”

“It is apparent that the mere knowledge that a man was either a camp guard or a prisoner tells us almost nothing. Human kindness can be found in all groups, even those which as a whole it would be easy to condemn. The boundaries between groups overlapped, and we must not try to simplify matters by saying that these men were angels and those were devils.”

“While her purpose may have been the raising of awareness, the true impact came not from particular content or action, but the realization of where such waves were coming from. Effort is contagious, lowering the bar below [also] raises the bar above. Those who are perceived as weak thus have a higher potential than others. "If a little' X can do it, what then is the excuse of the Y?" Change very rarely come on its own, there is often causality or invisible hands. Those with great power need to recognize that truly they also have a great responsibility. Good vibrations are rarely spread on their own accord.”

“Untold stars wander through the unending depth of the cosmos. Radiant thoughts of God. They are all happy, for God wants the universe to be happy. Only there is one among them that does not share this fate. Did God forget this star? Or did he grant it the highest glory by giving it the freedom of struggling up by its own strength? We do not know. We are a tiny fraction of the history of this tiny star.”

“Kiss your scars. Fall in love with them. They ought to serve as life-affirming reminders—a lingering trace of hope. The only reason we have these scars is because we survived and are still here.”

“Some say we are not like humans but we are more like them than we are different. Man and animals are in the same species as mammals as they have mammary glands that produce the milk to nurse their young. Their lungs breathe air and their blood is warm. They are vertebrates in that their skeletal system and well-designed spines hold their bodies together. Each cell is made of molecules, each molecule is made of atoms, and each atom is made of protons, neutrons and mostly electrons, which are made of waves of fibered light.”

“А я вважаю, що справжній чоловік народжується воїном. — Дурня! — заперечив я. — Не воїном, а людиною. Істотою, що мислить і відчуває. Яка так, як і жінка, має право боятися смерті, болю і приниження. І навпаки: пора б уже виростити чоловіків, які бояться убивати, робити комусь боляче і принижувати когось. Чоловік має право бути пацифістом, ненавидіти війну, не хапатися за зброю, берегти себе і уникати вбивства інших людей в ім'я яких би там не було цілей, крім крайніх випадків, коли треба і доводиться навіть ціною свого життя захищати свою родину від бандитів, від зовнішніх ворогів і від своєї держави, яка буває гірша за зовнішніх ворогів. Але якийсь перший-ліпший авантюрист, кочівник по гарячих точках чи просто слухняний виконавець, готовий убивати чи хоч бути убитим за наказом, за шматок якоїсь території, за високу ідею, за те, щоб примусити когось жити по-нашому, за гроші, за ордени чи заради свого задоволення, якої б статі він не був, він для мене взагалі не зовсім людина [102].”

“There is no record in Scripture that an angel visited John’s cell to explain the meaning of his persecution. This great, godly man who was the designated forerunner to Jesus went through the same confusing experiences as we. It is comforting to know that John responded in a very human way. He sent a secret message to Jesus from his prison cell, asking “Are you the one who was to come, or should we expect someone else?” (Matthew 11:3). Have you ever felt like asking that question?”

“And this is the unwritten history of man, his unseen, negative accomplishment, his power to do without gratification for himself provided there is something great, something into which his being, and all beings can go. He does not need meaning as long as such intensity has scope. Because then it is self-evident; it is meaning.”

“Work on making yourself a complete being. Though you were born with the physical traits of one sex, you possess the characteristics of both - including those of plants and animals. You were created as a nearly complete universal being, but with flaws. True perfection can only be achieved when one recognizes that they need to combine their oneness with others and nature. Only then is one considered complete.”

“Another basic characteristic of liberalism which constitutes a formidable obstacle to an oppressed group's liberation is its conception of human nature. If selfishness, aggressiveness, the drive to conquer and dominate, really are among defining human traits, as every liberal philosopher since Locke tries to convince us, the oppression in civil society—i.e. in the social sphere not regulated by the state—is a fact of life, and the basic civil relationship between a man and a women will always remain a battlefield. Woman, being less aggressive, is then either the less human of the two and doomed to subjugation, or else she must get more power-hungry herself and try to dominate man. Liberation for both is not feasible.”
