A Quote by Samuel Laman Blanchard

Man will take anything you like, except warning. — © Samuel Laman Blanchard
Man will take anything you like, except warning.
Unless a man has pity he is not truly a man. If a man has not wept at the worlds pain he is only half a man, and there will always be pain in the world, knowing this does not mean that a man shall dispair. A good man will seek to take pain out of things. A foolish man will not even notice it, except in himself, and the poor unfortunate evil man will drive pain deeper into things and spread it about wherever he goes.
It is also a warning. It is a warning that, if nobody reads the writing on the wall, man will be reduced to the state of the beast, whom he is shaming by his manners.
I am warning my people, but I'm also warning Iran, and warning Saudi Arabia, and warning China and Russia and Europe. We are at the end of this world.
There is no folly of which a man who is not a fool cannot get rid except vanity; of this nothing cures a man except experience of its bad consequences, if indeed anything can cure it.
I will never tweet out anything that Twitter has to slap a warning on like a pack of cigarettes.
In battle, you forgive a man anything except an unwillingness to take risks. Sometimes you have to put it on the line.
How is it possible to expect that mankind will take advice when they will not so much as take warning.
Men will forgive a man anything except bad prose.
A man will give up almost anything except his suffering.
Any man can learn anything he will, but no man can teach except to those who want to learn.
You'll get everything society can give a man. You'll keep all the money. You'll take any fame or honor anyone might want to grant. You'll accept such gratitude as the tenants might feel. And I - I'll take what nobody can give a man, except himself. I will have built Cortlandt. - Howard Roark
A man who drinks too much on occasion is still the same man as he was sober. An alcoholic, a real alcoholic, is not the same man at all. You can't predict anything about him for sure except that he will be someone you never met before.
A woman in love will do almost anything for a man, except give up the desire to improve him.
You cannot, sir, take from me any thing that I will more willingly part withal: except my life, except my life, except my life.
We cannot allow the defense of American lives to be held hostage by the United Nations -- which has already given Saddam Hussein a final warning, and now wants to give him another final warning. And, if he doesn't heed that, they will threaten him with yet another warning.
If the white man gives you anything - just remember when he gets ready he will take it right back. We have to take for ourselves.
