Man is only miserable so far as he thinks himself so.

Jacopo Sannazaro

One man thinks before he acts. Another man thinks after he acts. Each is of the opinon that the other thinks too much.

Susan Sontag

If a man thinks you're beautiful or thinks you're strong or thinks you're smart, take the power and use it, but don't need it.

Kelli O'Hara

When a man thinks about a woman he thinks about love, he never thinks about marriage. When a woman thinks about a man, she thinks about marriage. Love is secondary, security is first. She lives in a different kind of world - maybe in the future she may not, but in the past the only problem for the woman was how to be secure.

Rajneesh

Don't let the opinions of the average man sway you. Dream, and he thinks you're crazy. Succeed, and he thinks you're lucky. Acquire wealth, and he thinks you're greedy. Pay no attention. He simply doesn't understand.

Robert G. Allen

The miserable man makes a peny of a farthing, and the liberall of a farthing sixe pence. [The miserable man maketh a penny of a farthing, and the liberal of a farthing sixpence.]

George Herbert

If a man, day and night, thinks he is miserable, low and nothing, nothing he becomes. If you say yea, yea, "I am, I am", so shall you be.

Swami Vivekananda

The superior man thinks always of virtue; the common man thinks of comfort.

Confucius

Why get married and make one man miserable when I can stay single and make thousands miserable?

Philosophy teaches how man thinks he thinks; but drinking shows how he really thinks.

Rene Daumal

The old metaphysical prejudice that man 'always thinks' has not yet entirely disappeared. I am myself inclined to hold that man really thinks very little and very seldom.

Wilhelm Wundt

The man who thinks he can and the man who thinks he can't are both right. Which one are you?

Unknown

The lunatic is the man who lives in a small world but thinks it is a large one; he is the man who lives in a tenth of the truth, and thinks it is the whole. The madman cannot conceive any cosmos outside a certain tale or conspiracy or vision.
