A bachelor is only half a man — © Louisa Lawson
A bachelor is only half a man
After all, wedlock is the natural state of man. A bachelor is not a complete human being. He is like the odd half of a pair of scissors, which has not yet found its fellow, and therefore is not even half so useful as they might be together.
A bachelor, in my opinion, is only half alive.
Every man needs a blind eye and a deaf ear, so when people applaud, you'll only hear half of it, and when people salute, you'll only see part of it. Believe only half the praise and half the criticism.
A smart man only believes half of what he hears, a wise man knows which half.
A nun, at best, is only half a woman, just as a priest is only half a man.
A bachelor has to have an inspiration for making love to a woman--a married man needs only an excuse.
Christmas 1972 was a lonely time for Kissinger, as well as for his boss, and a period of serious reflection. Kissinger was then a bachelor, enamored of the tall, elegant, but elusive WASP Nancy Maginnes, but still very much a bachelor - Washington's most sought-after bachelor.
The man is only half himself, the other half is his expression.
You're only half the man that I am, and I have half the brain that you do.
As a rule, you see, I'm not lugged into Family Rows. On the occasions when Aunt is calling Aunt like mastodons bellowing across premieval swamps and Uncle James's letter about Cousin Mabel's peculiar behaviour is being shot round the family circle ('Please read this carefully and send it on Jane') the clan has a tendency to ignore me. It's one of the advantages I get from being a bachelor - and, according to my nearest and dearest, practically a half-witted bachelor at that.
Living out one's faith is either no way to live or the only way to live; it's either imprisonment, or the only path to freedom. It offers happiness, or it frustrates the pursuit. There is no half-love, half-religion, half-worship, half-belief, half-truth. There is no kinda-sorta.
A married man is a man with a past, while a bachelor is a man with a future.
I have a Bachelor in medicine, a Bachelor in surgery, and I am a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons.
A Bachelor of Arts is one who makes love to a lot of women, and yet has the art to remain a bachelor.
My entire schedule gets turned around for 'The Bachelor' and 'Bachelor in Paradise.'
Man is perhaps half mind and half matter in the same way as the polyp is half plant and half animal. The strangest creatures are always found on the border lines of species.
