He taught me that a real man doesnโt take, he gives; he doesnโt use force, he uses logic; doesnโt play the role of trouble-maker, but rather, trouble-shooter; and most importantly, a real man is defined by whatโs in his heart, not his pants.

It is a pacific substitute for civil war in which the opposing armies are counted and the victory is awarded to the larger before any blood is shed.

But she gets into trouble enough or she fails enough, like when she does poorly in a primary, what do they chalk it up to? Sexism, like Don Lemon did. Sexism.
Rush LimbaughThe path of least resistance and least trouble is a mental rut already made. It requires troublesome work to undertake the alternation of old beliefs.

Benjamin F. JohnsonAll around us lies what we neither understand nor use. Our capacities, our instincts for this our present sphere are but half developed. Let us confine ourselves to that till the lesson be learned; let us be completely natural; before we trouble ourselves with the supernatural.
