Clouds rise up to heaven:
The image of WAITING.
Thus the superior man eats and drinks,
is joyous and of good cheer. ~ Hellmut Wilhelm
Superior Man quotes by Hellmut Wilhelm
Oh! what a superior man," said Candide below his breath. "What a great genius is this Pococurante! Nothing can please him. ~ Voltaire
Superior Man quotes by Voltaire
The superior man is distressed by the limitations of his ability; he is not distressed by the fact that men do not recognize the ability that he has. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
To repay evil with kindness is the proof of a good man; a superior man blames himself, a common man blames others. ~ Pearl S. Buck
Superior Man quotes by Pearl S. Buck
If you don't know your purpose, discover it, now.
The core of your life is your purpose. Everything in your life, from your diet to your career, must be aligned with your purpose if you are to act with coherence and integrity in the world. If you know your purpose, your deepest desire, then the secret of success is to discipline your life so that you support your deepest purpose and minimize distractions and detours. ~ David Deida
Superior Man quotes by David Deida
The Superior Man is aware of Righteousness, the inferior man is aware of advantage. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
The superior man is easy to serve, but difficult to please ... The inferior man is difficult to serve, but easy to please. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
A saint is long past any desire for distinction; he is the only sort of superior man who has never been a superior person. ~ G.K. Chesterton
Superior Man quotes by G.K. Chesterton
The superior man is never in anyone's way. ~ Napoleon Bonaparte
Superior Man quotes by Napoleon Bonaparte
Your scorn for mediocrity blinds you to its vast primitive power. You stand in the glare of your own brilliance, unable to see into the dim corners of the room, to dilate your eyes and see the potential dangers of the mass, the wad of humanity. Even as I tell you this, dear student, you cannot quite believe that lesser men, in whatever numbers, can really defeat you. But we are in the age of the mediocre man. He is dull, colorless, boring - but inevitably victorious. The amoeba outlives the tiger because it divides and continues in its immortal monotony. The masses are the final tyrants. See how, in the arts, Kabuki wanes and withers while popular novels of violence and mindless action swamp the mind of the mass reader. And even in that timid genre, no author dares to produce a genuinely superior man as his hero, for in his rage of shame the mass man will send his yojimbo, the critic, to defend him. The roar of the plodders is inarticulate, but deafening. They have no brain, but they have a thousand arms to grasp and clutch at you, drag you down. ~ Trevanian
Superior Man quotes by Trevanian
The superior man, extensively studying all learning, and keeping himself under the restraint of the rules of propriety, may thus likewise not overstep what is right. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
The superior man does not mind being in office; all he minds about is whether he has qualities that entitle him to office. He does not mind failing to get recognition; he is too busy doing the things that entitle him to recognition. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
The superior man does what is proper to the station in which he is; he does not desire to go beyond this. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
The faults of the superior man are like the eclipses of the sun and moon. He has his faults, and all men see them; he changes, and all men look up to him. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
Great as heaven and earth are, men still find some things in them with which to be dissatisfied. Thus it is that, were the superior man to speak of his way in all its greatness, nothing in the world would be found able to embrace it, and were he to speak of it in its minuteness, nothing in the world would be found able to split it. ~ Confucius

The Way of the Superior Man Quotes
The Way of the Superior Man by David Deida
The Way of the Superior Man: A Spiritual Guide to...
by David Deida
Read
Austerity means to eliminate the comforts and cushions in your life that you have learned to snuggle into and lose wakefulness. Take away anything that dulls your edge. No newspapers or magazines. No TV. No candy, cookies, or sweets. No sex. No cuddling. No reading of anything at all while you eat or sit on the toilet. Reduce working time to a necessary minimum. No movies. No conversation that isn't about truth, love, or the divine.

If you take on these disciplines for a few weeks, as well as any other disciplines that may particularly cut through your unique habits of dullness, then your life will be stripped of routine distraction. All that will be left is the edge you have been avoiding by means of your daily routine. You will have to face the basic discomfort and dissatisfaction that is the hidden texture of your life. You will be alive with the challenge of living your truth, rather than hiding form it.

Unadorned suffering is the bedmate of masculine growth. Only by staying intimate with your personal suffering can you feel through it to its source. By putting all your attention into work, TV, sex, and reading, your suffering remains unpenetrated, and the source remains hidden. Your life becomes structured e ~ David Deida
Superior Man quotes by David Deida
All government, in its essence, is a conspiracy against the superior man: its one permanent object is to oppress him and cripple him. If it be aristocratic in organization, then it seeks to protect the man who is superior only in law against the man who is superior in fact; if it be democratic, then it seeks to protect the man who is inferior in every way against both. One of its primary functions is to regiment men by force, to make them as much alike as possible and as dependent upon one another as possible, to search out and combat originality among them. All it can see in an original idea is potential change, and hence an invasion of its prerogatives. The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out for himself, without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane and intolerable, and so, if he is romantic, he tries to change it. And even if he is not romantic personally he is very apt to spread discontent among those who are. ~ H.L. Mencken
Superior Man quotes by H.L. Mencken
Everything you do right now ripples outward and affects everyone. Your posture can shine your heart or transmit anxiety. Your breath can radiate love or muddy the room in depression. Your glance can awaken joy. Your words can inspire freedom. Your every act can open hearts and minds. ~ David Deida
Superior Man quotes by David Deida
The superior man is quiet and calm, waiting for the appointments of heaven, while the mean man walks in dangerous paths, looking for lucky occurrences. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
Closing down in the midst of pain is a denial of a man's true nature. A superior man is free in feeling and action, even
amidst great pain and hurt. If necessary, a man should live with a hurting heart rather than a closed one. He should
learn to stay in the wound of pain and act with spontaneous skill and love even from that place. ~ David Deida
Superior Man quotes by David Deida
The superior man acquaints himself with many sayings of antiquity and many deeds of the past, in order to strengthen his character thereby. ~ John Milton
Superior Man quotes by John Milton
The superior man leads not by violence or by coarse physical acts but by the pure intelligence of a wise mind. ~ Pearl S. Buck
Superior Man quotes by Pearl S. Buck
The superior man loves his soul; the inferior man loves his property. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
A superior man is modest in his speech, but exceeds in his actions. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
The British call junzi a "gentleman," no surprise. The Americans have no gentlemen, so they translate junzi as "the superior man." The Germans have no gentlemen either, and "superior man" is reserved, so they call junzi an "edler" meaning a person of noble blood. To sum up, all Europeans call junzi anything but junzi, which is quite a scandal. ~ Thorsten J. Pattberg
Superior Man quotes by Thorsten J. Pattberg
The superior man understands what is right; the inferior man understands what will sell. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
Confucius taught this when he said, "The superior man seeks what is right; the inferior man, what is profitable. ~ Bohdi Sanders
Superior Man quotes by Bohdi Sanders
A superior man in dealing with the world is not for anything or against anything. He follows righteousness as the standard. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
Possessed of courage but devoid of morality, a superior man will make trouble while a small man will be a brigand. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
The superior man is he who develops, in harmonious proportions, his moral, intellectual, and physical nature. ~ Unknown
Superior Man quotes by Unknown
Those who know the TRUTH are not equal to those who love it. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
The superior man blames himself. The inferior man blames others. ~ Don Shula
Superior Man quotes by Don Shula
The superior man accords with the course of the Mean. Though he may be all unknown, unregarded by the world, he feels no regret - It is only the sage who is able for this. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
The superior man is all-embracing and not partial. The inferior man is partial and not all-embracing. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
The superior man, while his parents are alive, reverently nourishes them; and, when they are dead, reverently sacrifices to them. His thought to the end of his life is how not to disgrace them. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
The superior man governs men, according to their nature, with what is proper to them, and as soon as they change what is wrong, he stops. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
If a superior man undertakes something and tried to lead,
He goes astray.
But if he follows, he finds guidance.
It is favourable to find friends in the West and South,
and quiet perseverance brings good fortune. ~ Pearl S. Buck
Superior Man quotes by Pearl S. Buck
The superior man is satisfied and composed; the mean man is always full of distress. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
The superior man honors his virtuous nature, and maintains constant inquiry and study, seeking to carry it out to its breadth and greatness, so as to omit none of the more exquisite and minute points which it embraces, and to raise it to its greatest height and brilliancy. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
A scholar who cherishes the love of comfort is not fit to be deemed a scholar. ~ Lao-Tzu
Superior Man quotes by Lao-Tzu
By nature, men are nearly alike; by practice, they get to be wide apart. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
Cuvier had even in his address & manner the character of a superior Man, much general power & eloquence in conversation & great variety of information on scientific as well as popular subjects. I should say of him that he is the most distinguished man of talents I have ever known on the continent ... ~ Humphry Davy
Superior Man quotes by Humphry Davy
The superior man thinks always of virtue; the common man thinks of comfort. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
When the Superior Man eats he does not try to stuff himself; at rest he does not seek perfect comfort; he is diligent in his work and careful in speech. He avails himself to people of the Tao and thereby corrects himself. This is the kind of person of whom you can say, 'he loves learning.' ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
The superior man limits his achievements. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
The superior man acts before he speaks, and afterwards speaks according to his action. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
If a superior man abandon virtue, how can he fulfil the requirements of that name? ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
The superior man is anxious lest he should not get the truth; he is not anxious lest poverty should come upon him. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
He had four of the characteristics of a superior man: - in his conduct of himself, he was humble; in serving his superiors, he was respectful; in nourishing the people, he was kind; in ordering the people, he was just. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
Every man knows that his highest purpose in life cannot be reduced to any particular relationship. If a man prioritizes his relationship over his highest purpose, he weakens himself, disserves the universe, and cheats his woman of an authentic man who can offer his full, undivided presence. ~ David Deida
Superior Man quotes by David Deida
Honor is simply the morality of superior men. ~ H.L. Mencken
Superior Man quotes by H.L. Mencken
It is unfortunate that superior talent and superior men are so seldom united. ~ Marie Von Ebner-Eschenbach
Superior Man quotes by Marie Von Ebner-Eschenbach
The superior man is not seeking fulfillment through work and woman, because he is already full. For him, work and intimacy are opportunities to give his gifts, and to be vanished in the bliss of giving. ~ David Deida
Superior Man quotes by David Deida
Politics, under a democracy, reduces itself to a mere struggle for office by flatterers of the proletariat; even when a superior man prevails at that disgusting game he must prevail at the cost of his self-respect. Not many superior men make the attempt. The average great captain of the rabble, when he is not simply a weeper over irremediable wrongs, is a hypocrite so far gone that he is unconscious of his own hypocrisy.. a slimy fellow, offensive to the nose. ~ H.L. Mencken
Superior Man quotes by H.L. Mencken
One is not, my dear sir, a superior man merely because one sees the world in an odious light. One only hates mankind and life itself through failing to look deeply enough. ~ Francois-Rene De Chateaubriand
Superior Man quotes by Francois-Rene De Chateaubriand
Your only real choices are to open fully and receive their gifts or crucify them and be relieved of their force ... But you must be willing to feel your heart's terrors and wounds or else you will close and protect yourself, striking back at the source of openness you most yearn to become ... ~ David Deida
Superior Man quotes by David Deida
You are not only a man, you are a superior man: a man who does his best to live as love in the world and in his intimacy, a man whose heart remains open and whose truth remains strong ... ~ David Deida
Superior Man quotes by David Deida
There is the love of knowing without the love of learning; the beclouding here leads to dissipation of mind. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
Every moment of your life is either a test or a celebration. The same is true about every moment with your woman, only doubly so. Not only is her simple existence a test for you, but one of her deepest pleasures in intimacy is testing you, and then feeling you are not moved off course by her challenge.

The most erotic moment for a woman is feeling that you are Shiva, the divine masculine: unperturbable, totally loving, fully present, and all-pervading. She cannot move you, because you already are what you are, with or without her. She cannot scare you away, because you already penetrate her in fearless love, pervading her heart and body. She cannot distract you, because your one-pointed commitment to truth will not bend to her wiles. Feeling this hugeness of love and freedom in you, she can trust you, utterly, and surrender her testing in celebration of love.

Until she wants to feel you as Shiva again. And then the testing will begin anew. In fact, it is precisely when you are most Shiva-like that she will most test you. ~ David Deida
Superior Man quotes by David Deida
The faults of a superior person are like the sun and moon. They have their faults, and everyone sees them; they change and everyone looks up to them. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
After an inferior man has been taught a doctrine of superiority he will remain as inferior as he was before his lesson. He will merely assume himself to be superior, and attempt to employ his recently-learned tactics against his own kind, whom he will then consider his inferiors. With each inferior man enjoying what he considers his unique role, the entire bunch will be reduced to a pack of strutting, foppish, self-centered monkeys gamboling about on an island of ignorance. There they will play their games under the supervision of their keeper, who was and always will be a superior man. ~ Anton Szandor LaVey
Superior Man quotes by Anton Szandor LaVey
The superior man, in the world, does not set his mind either for anything, or against anything; what is right he will follow. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
The superior man, even when he is not moving, has a feeling of reverence, and while he speaks not, he has the feeling of truthfulness. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
Heaven means to be one with God. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
Earnest in practicing the ordinary virtues, and careful in speaking about them, if, in his practice, he has anything defective, the superior man dares not but exert himself; and if, in his words, he has any excess, he dares not allow himself such license. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
Great men are excellent topics of conversation, but the superior man, the superior men, the masters, the universal spirits on horseback, have to stop and search their memories merely to know who these so-called great men might be. And so the great man is left with the crowd, the worthless majority ... for his admirers. ~ Knut Hamsun
Superior Man quotes by Knut Hamsun
The superior man is universally minded and no partisan. The inferior man is a partisan and not universal. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
The object of the superior man is truth. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
Oh Izzy, girl how do you let him get dressed. A shame, oh it is a shame to let that man ever put clothes on. ~ Harper Sloan
Superior Man quotes by Harper Sloan
Led Zeppelin! I clapped my hand over my mouth.
This big, strong man, wearing a muscle shirt and cargo pants, sang rock songs to a toddler in the middle of the night. I was so toast. Game over. And it was doubly terrifying, considering I had no idea how to make him stick around. He would leave and take his sweetness and his Pepto and our hearts. ~ Amber Lin
Superior Man quotes by Amber Lin
A man is involved in life, leaves his impress on it, and outside of that there is nothing. ~ Jean-Paul Sartre
Superior Man quotes by Jean-Paul Sartre
Beautiful features, always immaculately dressed, the kind of woman that makes a great impression. Their hair is always nicely curled. They major in French literature at expensive private women's colleges, and after graduation find jobs as receptionists or secretaries. They work for a few years, visit Paris for shopping once a year with their girlfriends. They finally catch the eye of a promising young man in the company, or else are formally introduced to one, and quit work to get married. They then devote themselves to getting their children into famous private schools. As he sat there, Tsukuru pondered the kind of lives they led. ~ Haruki Murakami
Superior Man quotes by Haruki Murakami
SHE hears me strike the board and say
That she is under ban
Of all good men and women,
Being mentioned with a man
That has the worst of all bad names;
And thereupon replies
That his hair is beautiful,
Cold as the March wind his eyes. ~ W.B.Yeats
Superior Man quotes by W.B.Yeats
When a white man sees persons of his own race tending downward to a level of disgrace he does not rest until he works out some plan to lift such unfortunates to higher ground; but the Negro forgets the delinquents of his race and goes his way to feather his own nest, as he has done in leaving the masses in the popular churches. ~ Carter G. Woodson
Superior Man quotes by Carter G. Woodson
Well, when one has no one, nowhere else one can go! For every man must have somewhere to go. Since there are times when one absolutely must go somewhere! ~ Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Superior Man quotes by Fyodor Dostoyevsky
A man can do a television interview and roll out of bed 15 minutes before; it's just not the same for a woman. A woman has to pay attention to her hair, makeup, clothing, and jewelry choices. ~ Michele Bachmann
Superior Man quotes by Michele Bachmann
What a man knows hardly matters. It is what he does. ~ Gene Wolfe
Superior Man quotes by Gene Wolfe
Competition on the market aims at assigning to every individual that function in the social system in which he can render to all his fellow men the most valuable of the services he is able to perform. ~ Ludwig Von Mises
Superior Man quotes by Ludwig Von Mises
Deem no man happy until he passes the edo fhis life without suffering grief. ~ Sophocles
Superior Man quotes by Sophocles
Jesus was a man of love, of immense compassion. He loved this earth, the people, the threes, because that is the way to love God.

God is life. Jesus is very life-affirmative. He says total yes to life.

When you look into the eyes of each being that you meet, you meet God.

Everybody is an incarnation of God - the threes, the flowers, the rocks, the animals, the people and the mountains.

Love the people, love the threes, love the animals - and through the love you meet God.

All are brothers here, because God is one.

The threes, the flowers, the birds and the rocks are all your brothers, because they all come from the one source.

if you are not reconciled with the world, you cannot pray to God. Prayer is only possible when you are in harmony with existence.

The whole existence is your brother. The first step for prayer is to be reconciled with your brother. And your brother means all beings.

Jesus is a celebration of being, a celebration of life.

If you deny life, you deny God.

If you say no to life, you say no to God, because God is life.

To understand Jesus, you have to understand that life is God.

If you say yes to life, you will feel a prayer arising in your heart, a yes arising in your being.

The ego is a no to life, the ego is a separation from life. The inner being is a yes to life. The inner being is a dee ~ Swami Dhyan Giten
Superior Man quotes by Swami Dhyan Giten
So far, 44 States, or 88 percent of the States, have enacted laws providing that marriage shall consist of a union between a man and a woman. Only 75 percent of the States are required to approve a constitutional amendment. ~ Jack Kingston
Superior Man quotes by Jack Kingston
No man can tame a tiger into a kitten by stroking it. ~ Franklin D. Roosevelt
Superior Man quotes by Franklin D. Roosevelt
Do you know how a man makes his way here? By brilliant genius or by skilful corruption. You must either cut your way through these masses of men like a cannon ball, or steal among them like a plague. ~ Honore De Balzac
Superior Man quotes by Honore De Balzac
If ever a man was too clever for his own good, it was the learned Daor Ranald. A middle-aged scholar with silver-rimmed spectacles and a curly brown mop of hair that refused any efforts at taming, he was always moving, talking, or reading. Often all at once. ~ L.H. Leonard
Superior Man quotes by L.H. Leonard
In external ways Pierre had hardly changed at all. In appearance he was just what he used to be. As before he was absent-minded and seemed occupied not with what was before his eyes but with something special of his own. The difference between his former and present self was that formerly when he did not grasp what lay before him or was said to him, he had puckered his forehead painfully as if vainly seeking to distinguish something at a distance. At present he still forgot what was said to him and still did not see what was before his eyes, but he now looked with a scarcely perceptible and seemingly ironic smile at what was before him and listened to what was said, though evidently seeing and hearing something quite different. Formerly he had appeared to be a kindhearted but unhappy man, and so people had been inclined to avoid him. Now a smile at the joy of life always played round his lips, and sympathy for others shone in his eyes with a questioning look as to whether they were as contented as he was, and people felt pleased by his presence. ~ Leo Tolstoy
Superior Man quotes by Leo Tolstoy
You do not take a man who for years has been hobbled by chains, liberate him, bring him to the starting line of a race, saying you are free to compete with all the others, and still justly believe you have been completely fair ... We seek not just freedom but opportunity ... not just equality as a right and a theory, but equality as a fact and as a result. ~ Lyndon B. Johnson
Superior Man quotes by Lyndon B. Johnson
So Old Man Date Rape was number what?" she asks. "Four or five?"
"We're not counting him," I say. "This is the Twenty Boy Summer, not the Twenty Dirty Old Man Summer. ~ Sarah Ockler
Superior Man quotes by Sarah Ockler
Regardless of the staggering dimensions of the world about us, the density of our ignorance, the risks of catastrophes to come, and our individual weakness within the immense collectivity, the fact remains that we are absolutely free today if we choose to will our existence in its finiteness, a finiteness which is open on the infinite. And in fact, any man who has known real loves, real revolts, real desires, and real will knows quite well that he has no need of any outside guarantee to be sure of his goals; their certitude comes from his own drive. ~ Simone De Beauvoir
Superior Man quotes by Simone De Beauvoir
Success"

If you want a thing bad enough
To go out and fight for it,
Work day and night for it,
Give up your time and your peace and your sleep for it

If only desire of it
Makes you quite mad enough
Never to tire of it,
Makes you hold all other things tawdry and cheap for it

If life seems all empty and useless without it
And all that you scheme and you dream is about it,

If gladly you'll sweat for it,
Fret for it,
Plan for it,
Lose all your terror of God or man for it,

If you'll simply go after that thing that you want.
With all your capacity,
Strength and sagacity,
Faith, hope and confidence, stern pertinacity,

If neither cold poverty, famished and gaunt,
Nor sickness nor pain
Of body or brain
Can turn you away from the thing that you want,

If dogged and grim you besiege and beset it,
You'll get it! ~ Berton Braley
Superior Man quotes by Berton Braley
Yes, I'm a nice man and I enjoy babies. I'm a sensitive guy. I held a baby the other day and it was the first time either of us cried. ~ Garry Shandling
Superior Man quotes by Garry Shandling
A man, groundly learned already, may take much profit himself in using by epitome to draw other men's works, for his own memory sake, into short room. ~ Roger Ascham
Superior Man quotes by Roger Ascham
The Candor man wears a black suit with a white tie - Candor standard uniform. Their faction values honesty and sees the truth as black and white, so that is what they wear. ~ Veronica Roth
Superior Man quotes by Veronica Roth
You cannot leave the house to take the garbage out without full-on makeup and your hair done. You have to fight for your man out there. ~ Natalia Vodianova
Superior Man quotes by Natalia Vodianova
The chief investigator for Special Cases was a composite of the most ordinary features, a stencil of a man. ~ Martin Cruz Smith
Superior Man quotes by Martin Cruz Smith
What is God-given is called nature; to follow nature is called Tao (the Way); to cultivate the way is called culture. Before joy, anger, sadness and happiness are expressed, they are called the inner self; when they are expressed to the proper degree, they are called harmony. The inner self is the correct foundation of the world, and the harmony is the illustrious Way. When a man has achieved the inner self and harmony, the heaven and earth are orderly and the myriad of things are nourished and grow thereby. ~ Confucius
Superior Man quotes by Confucius
When a man cheats, it is said it is because he is a dog. When a woman cheats, it is said it is because her man is a dog. ~ Mokokoma Mokhonoana
Superior Man quotes by Mokokoma Mokhonoana
European man has convinced himself that in order to be modern and free, he must be radically secular. That conviction has had crucial, indeed lethal, consequences or European public life and European culture. ~ George Weigel
Superior Man quotes by George Weigel
I would address one general admonition to all, that they consider what are the true ends of knowledge, and that they seek it not either for pleasure of the mind, or for contention, or for superiority to others, or for profit, or for fame, or power, or any of these inferior things, but for the benefit and use of life; and that they perfect and govern it in charity. For it was from lust of power that the Angels fell, from lust of knowledge that man fell, but of charity there can be no excess, neither did angel or man come in danger by it. ~ Francis Bacon
Superior Man quotes by Francis Bacon
One's mother country is better than all else, and gloomy is life when a man sees not his home each morning ~ J.M. Synge
Superior Man quotes by J.M. Synge
It's weird, man. I've had a weird life, and I don't want to end up on the dole. I'm fed up with the plumbing. And I think it would be good to be a little pop star again. ~ Brian Harvey
Superior Man quotes by Brian Harvey
