Every man may speak truly, but to speak methodically, prudently, and fully is a talent that few men have (Few Men Quotes)
Few men realize that their life, the very essence of their character, their capabilities and their audacities, are only the expression of their belief in the safety of their surroundings (Few Men Quotes)
Throughout my life my greatest benefactors have been my travels and my dreams. Very few men, living or dead, have helped me in my struggles (Few Men Quotes)
To teach that a comparatively few men are responsible for the greatest forward steps of mankind is the worst sort of nonsense (Few Men Quotes)
The control of a large force is the same principle as the control of a few men: it is merely a question of dividing up their numbers (Few Men Quotes)
Very few men are wise by their own council, or learned by their own teaching. For he that was only taught by himself, had a fool for a master (Few Men Quotes)
Writing a record is like dating a few men at once. You take them to the same restaurants to see if they measure up, and at some point you decide who you like best (Few Men Quotes)
Few men are so obstinate in their atheism, that a pressing danger will not compel them to acknowledgment of a divine power (Few Men Quotes)
It’s enough for you to do it once for a few men to remember you. But if you do it year after year, then many people remember you and they tell it to their children, and their children and grandchildren remember and, if it concerns books, they can read them. And if it’s good enough, it will last as long as there are human beings (Few Men Quotes)
The idea that a book can advise a woman how to capture a man is touchingly naive. Books advising men how to capture a woman are far less common, perhaps because few men are willing to admit to such a difficulty. For both sexes, I recommend a good novel, offering scenarios you might learn from, if only because they reflect a lot of doubt (Few Men Quotes)
Few men are willing to brave the disapproval of their peers, the censure of their colleagues, the wrath of their society. Moral courage is a rarer commodity than bravery in battle or great intelligence. Yet it is the one essential, vital quality for those who seek to change a world that yields most painfully to change (Few Men Quotes)
His past was fairly blameless; few men could read the rolls of their life with less apprehension; yet he was humbled to the dust by the many ill things he had done, and raised up again into sober and fearful gratitude by the many he had come so near to doing, yet avoided (Few Men Quotes)
Many people fear nothing more terribly than to take a position which stands out sharply and clearly from the prevailing opinion. The tendency of most is to adopt a view that is so ambiguous that it will include everything and so popular that it will include everybody. Not a few men who cherish lofty and noble ideals hide them under a bushel for fear of being called different (Few Men Quotes)
Because I imagine there must be only a very, very few men in the world, that I should like to marry; and of those few, it is ten to one I may never be acquainted with one; or if I should, it is twenty to one he may not happen to be single, or to take a fancy to me (Few Men Quotes)
You said to me once that you weren’t what I dreamed of. You were right. You surpass everything I dreamed of. Even the rot in you that’s caused you to do shameful things. Some men let the rot and guilt fester into something ugly beyond words. Few men can turn it into worth and substance. If you’re gods’ blessed for no other reason, it’s for that (Few Men Quotes)
No proceeding is better than that which you have concealed from the enemy until the time you have executed it. To know how to recognize an opportunity in war, and take it, benefits you more than anything else. Nature creates few men brave, industry and training makes many. Discipline in war counts more than fury (Few Men Quotes)
A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of credit. Our system of credit is privately concentrated. The growth of the nation, therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men who, even if their action be honest and intended for the public interest, are necessarily concentrated upon the great undertakings in which their own money is involved and who necessarily, by very reason of their own limitations, chill and check and destroy genuine economic freedom (Few Men Quotes)
The history of the world is the history of a few men who had faith in themselves. That faith calls out the divinity within. You can do anything. You fail only when you do not strive sufficiently to manifest infinite power. As soon as a man or a nation loses faith, death comes (Few Men Quotes)
Few men survey themselves with so much severity as not to admit prejudices in their own favour, which an artful flatterer may gradually strengthen, till wishes for a particular qualification are improved to hopes of attainment, and hopes of attainment to belief of possession (Few Men Quotes)
Of history, how little do we know by personal contact; we have lived a few years, seen a few men, witnessed some important events; but what are these in the whole sum of the world’s past (Few Men Quotes)
To the everlasting glory of those few men blessed and sanctified in the curses and execrations of those many whose praise is eternal damnation (Few Men Quotes)
Never was a person more mortified than I was at this time, to see so fair an opportunity to push a victory; detroit lost for want of a few men (Few Men Quotes)
The world goes on because a few men in every generation believe in it utterly, accept it unquestioningly; they underwrite it with their lives (Few Men Quotes)
Such an one has been, as it were, miraculous in the world, in whom his wife and valet have seen nothing even remarkable; few men have been admired by their servants (Few Men Quotes)
Sound and sufficient reason falls, after all, to the share of but few men, and those few men exert their influence in silence (Few Men Quotes)
Common sense in one view is the most uncommon sense. While it is extremely rare in possession, the recognition of it is universal. All men feel it, though few men have it (Few Men Quotes)
Very few men are wise by their own counsel, or learned by their own teaching; for he that was only taught by himself had a fool to his master (Few Men Quotes)
