Punishment is now unfashionable... because it creates moral distinctions among men, which, to the democratic mind, are odious. We prefer a meaningless collective guilt to a meaningful individual responsibility.
For blacks in our society, victimization may be a true issue. But it isn't a true issue for women. Neither men nor women are victimized. The true issue, that I try to point out, is that both sexes suffer restricted roles.
I definitely agree with choices for women, but I do not agree with choices for women when they eliminate choices for men. Rather, I think that the sexes need to make choices that lead to the maximum amount of win-win for both sexes.
If you are a woman, you might feel torn between logical agreement and emotional resistance. Why? It seems like a simpler solution to blame men for the pay gap than to engineer your own bridge to higher pay.
I always read all these books about the slaves. My mother is very educated. My father would talk to us like we were grown men. We never knew what he was talking about half the time.
If cattle and horses, or lions, had hands, or were able to draw with their feet and produce the works which men do, horses would draw the forms of gods like horses, and cattle like cattle, and they would make the gods' bodies the same shape as their ...
Contrary to popular view, I've never been patronized in the Middle East. Men maybe treat women differently, but they do not treat them with disrespect. They don't hate women. It's a very different kind of mentality.
I've yet to be on a campus where most women weren't worrying about some aspect of combining marriage, children, and a career. I've yet to find one where many men were worrying about the same thing.
Richard Hannay: I know what it is to feel lonely and helpless and to have the whole world against me, and those are things that no men or women ought to feel.
William Miller: I love you. And I'm about to boldly go where... many men have gone before.
Bachinski: There's a strange entry in two of the burglars' address books. Bob Woodward: Yeh? Bachinski: One says "H.H. at W.H."; the other says "Howard Hunt, W. House".
Kurtz: [Kurtz dictates to tape] They train young men to drop fire on people. But their commanders won't allow them to write 'fuck' on their airplanes because it is obscene.
Bruce Wayne: I will go back to Gotham and I will fight men like this, but I will not become an executioner. Henri Ducard: Bruce, please! For your own sake. There is no turning back.
Bruce Wayne: I thought the point of solitary confinement was the solitary part. Henri Ducard: These men have mistaken you for a criminal, Mr. Wayne...
Brian: Are you gonna be, like, a shopping bag lady? You know, like, sit in alleyways and, like, talk to buildings and wear men's shoes and that kinda thing?
Corky: So what are you saying? You don't have sex with men? Violet: I don't. Corky: Oh, for Christ's sake, Violet, I heard you. Thin walls, remember?
Young William: I can fight. Malcolm Wallace: I know. I know you can fight. But it's our wits that make us men.
Princess Isabelle: I understand you have recently been given the rank of knight. William Wallace: I have been given nothing. God makes men what they are.
[while drunk in the confession booth] Paul Smecker: I put evil men behind bars, but the law has miles of red tape and loopholes for these cocksuckers to slip through.
If Jesus himself, or Mohammed, or Buddha spoke to me personally and said that women are inferior to men, I would still reject that as false dogma because I know with every ounce of my being that this is not true.
If we need the protection of men, let us first ask it from God. If we prevail with Him, the power of the most mighty and of the most wicked must minister to our relief.
