I happen to think we've set our ideal on the wrong objects; I happen to think that the greatest ideal man can set before himself is self-perfection. ~ W. Somerset Maugham
Ideal Man quotes by W. Somerset Maugham
My ideal man is Benjamin Franklin - the figure in American history most worthy of emulation ... Franklin is my ideal of a whole man ... Where are the life-size - or even pint-size - Benjamin Franklins of today? ~ Isidor Isaac Rabi
Ideal Man quotes by Isidor Isaac Rabi
The Ideal Man! Oh, the Ideal Man should talk to us as if we were goddesses, and treat us as if we were children. He should refuse all our serious requests, and gratify every one of our whims. He should encourage us to have caprices, and forbid us to have missions. He should always say much more than he means, and always mean much more than he says.

He should never run down other pretty women. That would show he had no taste, or make one suspect that he had too much. No; he should be nice about them all, but say that somehow they don't attract him.

If we ask him a question about anything, he should give us an answer all about ourselves. He should invariably praise us for whatever qualities he knows we haven't got. But he should be pitiless, quite pitiless, in reproaching us for the virtues that we have never dreamed of possessing. He should never believe that we know the use of useful things. That would be unforgiveable. But he should shower on us everything we don't want.

He should persistently compromise us in public, and treat us with absolute respect when we are alone. And yet he should be always ready to have a perfectly terrible scene, whenever we want one, and to become miserable, absolutely miserable, at a moment's notice, and to overwhelm us with just reproaches in less than twenty minutes, and to be positively violent at the end of half an hour, and to leave us for ever at a quarter to eight, when we have to go and dress for dinner. A ~ Oscar Wilde
Ideal Man quotes by Oscar Wilde
Repentance is the biggest punishment of ideal man. ~ Khem Veasna
Ideal Man quotes by Khem Veasna
My definition of the ideal man is 'that particular man with whom a woman happens to be in love at that particular time. ~ Clare Boothe Luce
Ideal Man quotes by Clare Boothe Luce
There is no such thing as an ideal man. The ideal man is the man you love at the moment. ~ Francoise Sagan
Ideal Man quotes by Francoise Sagan
The Ideal Man should talk to us as if we were goddesses, and treat us as if we were children. He should refuse all our serious requests, and gratify every one of our whims. He should encourage us to have caprices, and forbid us to have missions. He should always say much more than he means, and always mean much more than he says. ~ Oscar Wilde
Ideal Man quotes by Oscar Wilde
Haley and I would talk for hours about which member of 'N Sync we'd want to marry. After long deliberation, the answer was always J. C. Chasez. Joey
Fatone's last name was going to be "Fat One" no matter how great he was, and even though they didn't know at their
age that Lance Bass was gay outright, they sensed he'd make a better good friend and confidante. As for Justin Timberlake, well, JT was the coolest and hottest, but too flashy, so we couldn't trust him to be faithful. J. C. Chasez was the smart compromise. ~ Mindy Kaling
Ideal Man quotes by Mindy Kaling
immediately lose all sympathy for Megan when they learn that her child died, as though the baby were more valuable than the woman. Interestingly, for an "ideal" man, Tom shows little apparent ~ Anna Call
Ideal Man quotes by Anna Call
The Weak Point Dealer is an ideal man fighting his inner himself who is drowned by the outer himself, desperate to deal with the weak points. The man who is wildly in love with what he wants and madly hates for what he has to wait for. ~ Bhavik Sarkhedi
Ideal Man quotes by Bhavik Sarkhedi
Whatever the soul knows how to seek, it cannot fail to obtain. ~ Margaret Fuller
Ideal Man quotes by Margaret Fuller
Ladies, your sensuality is the only key to not only attracting your ideal man but to also unlocking in him the best treasures no one has ever told you anything about. ~ Lebo Grand
Ideal Man quotes by Lebo Grand
The highest ideal man can form of his own powers, is that which he is destined to attain. Whatever the soul knows how to seek, it cannot fail to obtain. This is the law and the prophets. Knock and it shall be opened, seek and ye shall find. It is demonstrated; it is a maxim. ~ Margaret Fuller
Ideal Man quotes by Margaret Fuller
To say of men that they are bad is to say they are worse than we think we are, or worse than the ideal man whose image we have built up on the basis of a certain few. ~ Jean Rostand
Ideal Man quotes by Jean Rostand
The ideal man bears the accidents of life with dignity and grace, making the best of circumstances.
- Aristotle ~ Aristotle.
Ideal Man quotes by Aristotle.
My ideal man is dead white old and on a green sheet of paper. ~ Nicki Minaj
Ideal Man quotes by Nicki Minaj
The ideal man is his own best friend and takes delight in privacy. ~ Aristotle.
Ideal Man quotes by Aristotle.
The ideal man doesn't exist. A husband is easier to find. ~ Britt Ekland
Ideal Man quotes by Britt Ekland
I sometimes used to ask myself, what on earth did I love her for? Maybe fore the warm hazel iris of her fluffy eyes, or for the natural side-wave of her brown hair, done anyhow, or again for that movement of her plump shoulders. But, probably the truth was that I loved her because she loved me. To her I was the ideal man: brains, pluck. And there was none dressed better. I remember once, when I first put on that new dinner jacket, with the vast trousers, she clapsed her hands, sank down on a chair and murmured: 'Oh, Hermann ... It was ravishment bordering upon something like heavenly woe. ~ Vladimir Nabokov
Ideal Man quotes by Vladimir Nabokov
Every human being has within him an ideal man, just as every piece of marble contains in a rough state a statue as beautiful as the one that Praxiteles the Greek made of the god Apollo. ~ Jose Marti
Ideal Man quotes by Jose Marti
Most people carry an ideal man and woman in their head, and when the practical relations of the men and women of every day are discussed with reference only to these impossible ideals, we need not marvel at any ridiculous conclusions. ~ Mary C. Ames
Ideal Man quotes by Mary C. Ames
The ideal man takes joy in doing favors for others. ~ Aristotle.
Ideal Man quotes by Aristotle.
Deep within every modern American female, whether she will admit it or not, lingers the image of an ideal man. It isn't necessarily photo quality, it rarely involves specific physical characteristics. No, this image is more like the promise of a feeling, a swept-off-your-feet, powerless-to-control-it, how-awesome-is-this-guy sentiment that she hopes someone special will someday inspire. Left to its own devices, the brain will keep this feeling dormant until truly warranted by a real-life flesh-and-blood person. ~ Libby Street
Ideal Man quotes by Libby Street
Sting's my ideal man, because he's a real man. ~ Alexander McQueen
Ideal Man quotes by Alexander McQueen
I never can imagine that a woman can do anything wrong, if they do then man made her to do it. ~ Debasish Mridha
Ideal Man quotes by Debasish Mridha
Man is without doubt the most interesting fool there is. He concedes that God made the angels immune from pain and death, and that he could have been similarly kind to man, but denies that he was under any moral obligation to do so. ~ Mark Twain
Ideal Man quotes by Mark Twain
My old man was a musician - that's what he did for a living. And like most fathers, occasionally he'd let me visit where he worked. So I started going to his recording studio, and I really dug it. ~ Dimebag Darrell
Ideal Man quotes by Dimebag Darrell
The men who are not interested in philosophy need it most urgently: they are most helplessly in its power. The men who are not interested in philosophy absorb its principles from the cultural atmosphere around them-from schools, colleges, books, magazines, newspapers, movies, television, etc. Who sets the tone of a culture? A small handful of men: the philosophers. Others follow their lead, either by conviction or by default. ~ Ayn Rand
Ideal Man quotes by Ayn Rand
A man can be reforged. ~ Brandon Sanderson
Ideal Man quotes by Brandon Sanderson
The merit of Marx is that he suddenly produces a qualitative change in the history of social thought. He interprets history, understands its dynamic, predicts the future, but in addition to predicting it (which would satisfy his scientific obligation), he expresses a revolutionary concept: the world must not only be interpreted, it must be transformed. Man ceases to be the slave and tool of his environment and converts himself into the architect of his own destiny. ~ Che Guevara
Ideal Man quotes by Che Guevara
I had fallen into a profound dream-like reverie in which I heard him speaking as at a distance. 'And yet there is no one who communes with only one god,' he was saying, 'and the more a man lives in imagination and in a refined understanding, the more gods does he meet with and talk with, and the more does he come under the power of Roland, who sounded in the Valley of Roncesvalles the last trumpet of the body's will and pleasure; and of Hamlet, who saw them perishing away, and sighed; and of Faust, who looked for them up and down the world and could not find them; and under the power of all those countless divinities who have taken upon themselves spiritual bodies in the minds of the modern poets and romance writers, and under the power of the old divinities, who since the Renaissance have won everything of their ancient worship except the sacrifice of birds and fishes, the fragrance of garlands and the smoke of incense. The many think humanity made these divinities, and that it can unmake them again; but we who have seen them pass in rattling harness, and in soft robes, and heard them speak with articulate voices while we lay in deathlike trance, know that they are always making and unmaking humanity, which is indeed but the trembling of their lips. ~ W.B. Yeats
Ideal Man quotes by W.B. Yeats
Never trust a skinny ice cream man. ~ Ben Cohen
Ideal Man quotes by Ben Cohen
Gentl, I am a party man. I believe that, without party, Parliamentary government is impossible. I look upon Parliamentary government as the noblest government in the world, and certainly the one most suited to England. ~ Benjamin Disraeli
Ideal Man quotes by Benjamin Disraeli
Admire and appreciate your man and he will be happy on your side ~ Linda Alfiori
Ideal Man quotes by Linda Alfiori
The man who spends all his time looking up to heaven is not always the best; in fact, he is usually the worst. ~ Jose Bergamin
Ideal Man quotes by Jose Bergamin
Atrial fibrillation has been the low man on the totem pole and so we're just trying to get more visibility about this particular disease and how dangerous this could be. ~ Barry Manilow
Ideal Man quotes by Barry Manilow
The man was a lunatic who somehow could tap into sanity when he looked her in the eye. What did that man make her? A human straightjacket? ~ Mary Connealy
Ideal Man quotes by Mary Connealy
How can a man give the shade to the others if he failed to find his own shadow? ~ Ajaykumar Narayanan
Ideal Man quotes by Ajaykumar Narayanan
There is no better love potion than a coffee. When a man drinks the coffee made by you he will become forever yours. ~ Sophia Loren
Ideal Man quotes by Sophia Loren
Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. ~ Jesus Christ
Ideal Man quotes by Jesus Christ
Leta walked to the door and opened it with a ready smile for Colby Lane. And found herself looking straight into the eye of a man she hadn't seen face-to-face in thirty-six years.
Matt Holden matched her face against his memories of a young, slight, beautiful woman whose eyes loved him every time they looked at him. His heart spun like a cartwheel in his chest.
"Cecily said it was Colby," Leta said unsteadily.
"Strange. She phoned me and asked if I was free this evening." His broad shoulders shrugged and he smiled faintly. "I'm free every evening."
"That doesn't sound like the life of a playboy widower," Leta said caustically.
"My wife was a vampire," he said. "She sucked me dry of life and hope. Her drinking wore me down. Her death was a relief for both of us. Do I get to come in?" he added, glancing down the hall. "I'm going to collect dust if I stand out here much longer, and I'm hungry. A sack of McDonald's hamburgers and fries doesn't do a lot for me."
"I hear it's a presidential favorite," Cecily mused, joining them. "Come in, Senator Holden."
"It was Matt before," he pointed out. "Or are you trying to butter me up for a bigger donation to the museum?"
She shrugged. "Pick a reason."
He looked at Leta, who was uncomfortable. "Well, at least you can't hang up on me here. You'll be glad to know that our son isn't speaking to me. He isn't speaking to you, either, or so he said," he added. "I suppose he won't talk to you?" he add ~ Diana Palmer
Ideal Man quotes by Diana Palmer
Civilization is complex. It involves the existence of human communities characterized by political and social organization; dominating and utilizing natural forces; adapting themselves to this new man-made environment; possessing true knowledge (empirical science), a natural sense of refinement, of the arts, and sciences; and most importantly, composed of individuals capable of sustaining this elaborate complex and of handing it on to a capable and similarly complex posterity. Moreover, this last consideration is, in fact, the heart of the whole matter. ~ Frank L. DeSilva
Ideal Man quotes by Frank L. DeSilva
She was young, healthy, stronger than she'd ever been. And she was in love with him. She'd fallen in love with a man who challenged the world to take him on, sometimes with laughing, boyish enthusiasm and other times as a warrior born and trained to kill. She could do this for him. Would do this for him. ~ Anne Bishop
Ideal Man quotes by Anne Bishop
I'll play out the string and leave baseball without a tear. A man can't play games his whole life. ~ Brooks Robinson
Ideal Man quotes by Brooks Robinson
From the point of view of a tapeworm, man was created by God to serve the appetite of the tapeworm. ~ Edward Abbey
Ideal Man quotes by Edward Abbey
A man can do only what he can do. But if he does that each day he can sleep at night and do it again the next day. ~ Albert Schweitzer
Ideal Man quotes by Albert Schweitzer
All time is mean young man. It takes and does not give, it rushes when you wish it would linger and drags when you wish is would fly. It flows sullenly, only in one direction, when it might take a thousand turns. You cannot get anything back once time has taken it. Time cheats and steals and lies and kills. If anyone could arrest it, they would have time behind bars faster than you can check your watch. ~ Catherynne M Valente
Ideal Man quotes by Catherynne M Valente
And in this quiet night he feels briefly, as if something unseen touches his face, the ancientness of this thing he does, that he could be a man of any age. ~ Cynan Jones
Ideal Man quotes by Cynan Jones
A woman has to look good, but a man - a little bit nicer looking than a monkey is enough. ~ Meir Shalev
Ideal Man quotes by Meir Shalev
Will: What do I wanna way outta here for? I'm gonna live here the rest of my fuckin' life. We'll be neighbors, have little kids, take 'em to Little League up at Foley Field.

Chuckie: Look, you're my best friend, so don't take this the wrong way but, in 20 years if you're still livin' here, comin' over to my house, watchin' the Patriots games, workin' construction, I'll fuckin' kill ya. That's not a threat, that's a fact, I'll fuckin' kill ya.

Will: What the fuck you talkin' about?

Chuckie: You got somethin' none of us have...

Will: Oh, come on! What? Why is it always this? I mean, I fuckin' owe it to myself to do this or that. What if I don't want to?

Chuckie: No. No, no no no. Fuck you, you don't owe it to yourself man, you owe it to me. Cuz tomorrow I'm gonna wake up and I'll be 50, and I'll still be doin' this shit. And that's all right. That's fine. I mean, you're sittin' on a winnin' lottery ticket. And you're too much of a pussy to cash it in, and that's bullshit. 'Cause I'd do fuckin' anything to have what you got. So would any of these fuckin' guys. It'd be an insult to us if you're still here in 20 years. Hangin' around here is a fuckin' waste of your time. ~ Ben Affleck
Ideal Man quotes by Ben Affleck
It cannot be denied that Islam, regarded as an ethical ideal plus a certain kind of polity - by which expression I mean a social structure regulated by a legal system and animated by a specific ethical ideal - has been the chief formative factor in the life-history of the Muslims of India. It has furnished those basic emotions and loyalties which gradually unify scattered individuals and groups, and finally transform them into a well-defined people, possessing a moral consciousness of their own. ~ Muhammad Iqbal
Ideal Man quotes by Muhammad Iqbal
What a man dares to do, he should dare to confess- unless he is a coward. ~ Rafael Sabatini
Ideal Man quotes by Rafael Sabatini
I do not love the Sabbath, The soapsuds and the starch, The troops of solemn people Who to Salvation march. I take my book, I take my stick On the Sabbath day, In woody nooks and valleys I hide myself away. To ponder there in quiet God's Universal Plan, Resolved that church and Sabbath Were never made for man. ~ Robert Graves
Ideal Man quotes by Robert Graves
I look at Kitty, who's braiding Chris's hair in microbraids. She's being extra quiet so we forget she's here and don't kick her out. 'I think that as long as you're ready and it's what you want to do and you're protecting yourself, then it's okay and you should do what you want to do.'
Margot says, 'Society is far too caught up in shaming a woman for enjoying sex and applauding a man. I mean, all of the comments are about how Lara Jean is a slut, but nobody's saying anything about Peter, and he's right there with her. It's a ridiculous double standard. ~ Jenny Han
Ideal Man quotes by Jenny Han
Give a man a noble cause and he would fight to the death for what he believed in,but get the woman he loves to leave him and his once honourable principles would cease to be quite so important. ~ Mike Gayle
Ideal Man quotes by Mike Gayle
However great an intellectual may be, however great one may be as a scholar or a man of learning, one has also to acquire humanness. Without humanness, scholarship and intellectual eminence are of no value. ~ Sathya Sai Baba
