Men

Famous quotes containing the word men:

    When the passage “All men are born free and equal,” when that passage was being written were not some of the signers legalised owners of slaves?
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    For all men would be cowards if they durst.
    John Wilmot, 2nd Earl Of Rochester (1647–1680)

    All men are lonely. But sometimes it seems to me that we Americans are the loneliest of all. Our hunger for foreign places and new ways has been with us almost like a national disease. Our literature is stamped with a quality of longing and unrest, and our writers have been great wanderers.
    Carson McCullers (1917–1967)
