The people who hold that our culture is an oppressive patriarchy, they don't want to admit that the current hierarchy might be predicated on competence.

We have to rediscover the eternal values and then live them out.

Men and women aren't the same. And they won't be the same. That doesn't mean that they can't be treated fairly.

There's a personality trait known as agreeableness. Agreeable people are compassionate and polite. And agreeable people get paid less than disagreeable people for the same job. Women are more agreeable than men.

Women deeply want men who are competent and powerful. And I don't mean power in that they can exert tyrannical control over others. That's not power. That's just corruption.

Accept the terrible responsibility of life with eyes wide open.

Don't be dependent. At all. Ever. Period.

Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past.

Nothing is more dangerous to maidenly delicacy of speech than the run of a good library.

Obedience to lawful authority is the foundation of manly character.

The education of a man is never completed until he dies.

Never do a wrong thing to make a friend or to keep one.

I wouldn't mind starting to ride some more if I had a really good horse to just work a little bit with every day.

Feeling a little bit alive is a lot better than just waiting to die.

One can never ask anyone to change a feeling.

Make the world better. Take the meanness out of people's hearts.

Into every life a little rain must fall.

A mind forever voyaging through strange seas of thought…alone.

The human mind moves always forward, alters its viewpoint and enlarges its thought substance, and the effect of these changes is to render past systems of thinking obsolete or, when they are preserved, to extend, to modify and subtly or visibly to alter their value.

There is nothing mind can do that cannot be better done in the mind's immobility and thought-free stillness. When mind is still, then truth gets her chance to be heard in the purity of the silence.

Hence, viper thoughts, that coil around my mind, Reality's dark dream! I turn from you, and listen to the wind.

It is a dull and obtuse mind, that must divide in order to distinguish; but it is a still worse that distinguishes in order to divide.

Every reform, however necessary, will by weak minds be carried to an excess, that itself will need reforming.

If you would stand well with a great mind, leave him with a favorable impression of yourself; if with a little mind, leave him with a favorable impression of himself.
