The theory seems to be that as long as a man is a failure he is one of God's children, but that as soon as he succeeds he is taken over by the Devil. Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
Restlessness is discontent and discontent is the first necessity of progress. Show me a thoroughly satisfied man and I will show you a failure. Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
One's only rival is one's own potentialities. One's only failure is failing to live up to one's own possibilities. In this sense, every man can be a king, and must therefore be treated like a king. Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
A man can fail many times, but he isn't a failure until he begins to blame somebody else. Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
Before success comes in any man's life, he's sure to meet with much temporary defeat and, perhaps some failures. When defeat overtakes a man, the easiest and the most logical thing to do is to quit. That's exactly what the majority of men do. Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
Religion points to that area of human experience where in one way or another man comes upon mystery as a summons to pilgrimage. Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
America is an idea. And it's the solemn responsibility of each 'temporary' president to protect and nurture that noblest of all ideas - with integrity. This man, Mitt Romney, has shown - not through his experience, but through his actions and words - that he is unqualified to carry out that responsibility. Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
The standpoint of the man who relies on religious experience for capturing Reality must always remain individual and incommunicable. Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
I hate it when people don't recognize the work of women as being universal, or having any import to the world at large, as opposed to men's work, which is generally tends to be seen as more universal - men's writing about their own experience tends to be put in a broader context. Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
One nice thing about being a woman in Hollywood is that the women tend to be very close-knit. All of us writers and directors know each other and cling to each other for safety and support, and it's really a completely different vibe than the men experience out here, where they're all trying to murder each other. Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
A woman's experience is different from a man's in virtually every respect, including how she is treated by the media. Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
That's not to say that women's priorities are better than men's. Rather, when women are empowered, when they can speak from the experience of their own lives, they often address different, previously neglected issues. And families and whole communities benefit. Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
