As Carl Jung once said, 'When an inner situation is not made conscious, it appears outside as fate.' When our boys become adults, we become their inner situation. We become inner voices they often hear in their work, relationships and spiritual practice.

Neuroligacally, human beings haven't caught up with today's overstimulating environment. Getting kids out in nature can make a difference.

Most teachers are not trained in how boys and girls learn differently.

A mother's job... is very much to hold back the coming of manhood.

The boy and the man must be raised to see the possibility of self worth, then meet a few others who provide the vision of a road toward it, then spend a lifetime pursing that worth through action and relationship. One of the great tragedies in human life is to be born a male and not be guided toward the value of a man.

If we create a generation of men who aren't getting an education, that's bad for women.

The quickest way to create a boy or man who lacks compassion is to judge and shame his feelings.
