Men have always been gentlemen to me - responsible people with healthy attitudes.
Being healthy and living a healthy lifestyle have always been very important to me.
I am conscious now of the little boys I am raising, there are things that are important to me so that they grow up as healthy, responsible and respectful men.
A teacher had once told them that men were either beasts, gentlemen, or beasts masquerading as gentlemen. Might there be a fourth category — gentlemen masquerading as beasts?
There has been a change in men's attitudes toward their clothes. Men are more aware of fashion; they're not afraid of it.
Men are weak and constantly need reassurance, so now that they fail to find adulation in the opposite sex, they're turning to each other. Less and less do men need women. More and more do gentlemen prefer gentlemen.
When we count on chance in lieu of law and labor, we weaken our healthy attitudes toward work, our fellow men and our God.
Painting has always been a healthy and happy place for me to create. People really like that experience and so do I.
Men no longer prefer blondes. Today gentlemen seem to prefer gentlemen.
I've made a terrible confession to you, he concluded gloomily. Do appreciate it, gentlemen. And it's not enough, not enough to appreciate it, you must not just appreciate it, it should also be precious to you, and if not, if this, too, goes past your souls, then it means you really do not respect me, gentlemen. I tell you that, and I will die of shame at having confessed to such men as you.
People's attitudes about sex aren't healthy anywhere, except maybe in those tribes where they go around naked.
We are responsible for our attitudes.
It is perfectly right for a gentleman to say "ladies and gentlemen," but a lady should say, "gentlemen and ladies." You mention your friend's name before you do your own. I always feel like rebuking any woman who says, "ladies and gentlemen." It is a lack of good manners.
I'm a twin, I'm a Cancer; I'm always taking care of other people. I've always been the fixer in the family, the responsible one.
I've never been one of those who is attracted to straight men. Like I always said, 'you're straight, so there's no point' and I have friends who are pursuers of the heterosexual men. They see it as conquests, which I think is a different thing and a more narcissistic thing. And not necessarily a healthy thing.
Ideally there should not be a men's movement but a gender transition movement; only the power of the women's movement necessitates the temporary corrective of a men's movement. And this creates a special challenge for men: There are few political movements filled with healthy people, yet few healthy changes have occurred without political movements.
My dad was always super-active and got me in the gym at a young age. He wanted me to be health-conscious. 'Healthy body, healthy mind'; that's what he preached to me.
