men thinking years
Someone told me once that blues is like whiskey. They keep whiskey in the barrel for so many years, and then they talk about how well it's aged. But I don't think that goes for him.

men humanity mind
In this world are very few things made from logic alone. It is illogical for man to be too logical. Some things we must just let stand. The mystery is more important than any possible explanation.

Bryce Courtenay

men self personality
Man is not merely the sum of his masks. Behind the shifting face of personality is a hard nugget of self, a genetic gift....
