quotes about Men

Anna Garlin Spencer:
The friendship between a man and a woman which does not lead to marriage or desire for marriage may be a life long experience of the greatest value to themselves and to all their circle of acquaintance and of activity; but for this type of friendship both a rare man and a rare woman are needed. Perhaps it should be added that either the man or the woman thus deeply bound in lifelong friendship who seeks marriage must find a still rarer man or woman to wed, to make such a three cornered comradeship a permanent success.
Betty Friedan:
Men weren’t really the enemy — they were fellow victims suffering from an outmoded masculine mystique that made them feel unnecessarily inadequate when there were no bears to kill.
Dennis Prager:
Men need rule books. Women want men to intuit what they want. And only about 2% of men can do that, and most of them are not heterosexual.
Farrah Fawcett:
God made man stronger but not necessarily more intelligent. He gave women intuition and femininity. And, used properly, that combination easily jumbles the brain of any man I’ve ever met.
George Bernard Shaw:
All young women begin by believing they can change and reform the men they marry. They can’t.
George Jean Nathan:
What passes for woman’s intuition is often nothing more than man’s transparency.
Gloria Steinem:
I have yet to hear a man ask for advice on how to combine marriage and a career.
Helen Rowland:

Herb Goldberg:
The struggle of the male to learn to listen to and respect his own intuitive, inner prompting is the greatest challenge of all. His conditioning has been so powerful that it has all but destroyed his ability to be self-aware.
James Baldwin:
If the relationship of father to son could really be reduced to biology, the whole earth would blaze with the glory of fathers and sons.
Katharine Hepburn:
Sometimes I wonder if men and women really suit each other. Perhaps they should live next door and just visit now and then.
Katharine Hepburn:
If you want to sacrifice the admiration of many men for the criticism of one, go ahead, get married.
Margaret Mead:
Women want mediocre men, and men are working to be as mediocre as possible.
Margaret Thatcher:
If you want anything said, ask a man. If you want something done, ask a woman.
Pearl S. Buck:
The basic discovery about any people is the discovery of the relationship between its men and its women.
Rita Mae Brown:
If the world were a logical place, men would ride side saddle.
Robert Frost:
A diplomat is a man who always remembers a woman’s birthday but never remembers her age.
Robert Heinlein:
Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea.
Simone de Beauvoir:
No one is more arrogant toward women, more aggressive or scornful, than the man who is anxious about his virility.
Stanley Baldwin:
I would rather trust a woman’s instinct than a man’s reason.
Susan B. Anthony:
Men, their rights, and nothing more; women, their rights, and nothing less.
Virginia Woolf:
The history of men’s opposition to women’s emancipation is more interesting perhaps than the story of that emancipation itself.
Virginia Woolf:
Why are women … so much more interesting to men than men are to women?
W. L. George:
Men have been found to deny woman intellect; they have credited her with instinct, with intuition, with a capacity to correlate cause and effect much as a dog connects its collar with a walk.
Walt Whitman:
In the faces of men and women I see God.
Walter Cronkite:
I think somebody ought to do a survey as to how many great, important men have quit to spend time with their families who spent any more time with their family.
