Man Quotes

Short lines on character, patience and what it means to be a man.

This is a smaller, general collection of quotes touching on manhood, character and patience. One well-known line uses golf as an example, a test of temperament disguised as a leisure game, to make a wider point about what reveals a man's spirit. For steadier, values-driven lines, see our Good quotes.

हमने पटाई एक लड़की तो सोचा हमारी लाटरी निकल गयी,
डेट पर बुलाया मिलने को तो हाय रे मेरी फूटी मिस्म्त
वो राखी बाँध के चली गयी.
शुभ राखी और हैप्पी राखी.

Hamane pataee ek ladakee to socha hamaaree laataree nikal gayee,
Det par bulaaya milane ko to haay re meree phootee mismt
Vo raakhee baandh ke chalee gayee.
Shubh raakhee aur haippee raakhee.

जो न जाने राम की महिमा

जो न जाने राम की महिमा
वो तो है बहुत अभागा अज्ञानी
पर दिल में जिसके राम बसे
उसको मेरी तरफ से हैप्पी रामनवमी !

Jo na jaane raam kee mahima
Vo to hai bahut abhaaga agyaanee
Par dil mein jisake raam base
Usako meree taraph se haippee raamanavamee !

The fact is I'm choosy, but mainly about a man's character. He has to be interesting, funny and clever. I don't even mind if he's not very good-looking.

God Quotes

And the woman who could win the respect of man was often the woman who could knock him down with her bare fists and sit on him until he yelled for help.

Quotes by Agnes Smedley

Now, being a girl, I was ashamed of my body and my lack of strength. So I tried to be a man. I shot, rode, jumped, and took part in all the fights of the boys.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of content will I find on this Man quotes page?

Is this page only serious, or is there humor too?
There's a mix of tones.
