Zitat des Tages über Starker Mann / Strong Men:
A most highly multiplying trait in point of far-reaching influences is that of ability to discover and use strong men. This trait stands out impressively in Rothschild's 'Lincoln, Master of Men'.
If you ask, do you like strong men or weak men, I'd say, I like who I like.
I shall argue that strong men, conversely, know when to compromise and that all principles can be compromised to serve a greater principle.
Why do otherwise sane, competent, strong men, men who can wrestle bears or raid corporations, shrink away in horror at the thought of washing a dish or changing a diaper?
Fire is the test of gold; adversity, of strong men.
Don't wait for extraordinary opportunities. Seize common occasions and make them great. Weak men wait for opportunities; strong men make them.
These are the days for strong men to courageously expose wrong.
Shallow men believe in luck. Strong men believe in cause and effect.
Strong beliefs win strong men, and then make them stronger.
The 'morality of compromise' sounds contradictory. Compromise is usually a sign of weakness, or an admission of defeat. Strong men don't compromise, it is said, and principles should never be compromised.
Strong men have sound ideas and the force to make these ideas effective.
Passion is what gets you through the hardest times that might otherwise make strong men weak, or make you give up.
A lot of guys have muscles. A lot of strong men in this world. I think it's important to show that even under all this strength there's a fragile side, a side that can be affected.
Let's be very clear: Strong men - men who are truly role models - don't need to put down women to make themselves feel powerful. People who are truly strong lift others up. People who are truly powerful bring others together.
