A great man’s manias must be respected, because the time required to combat them is too precious to waste  (Great Man Quotes) A great man always knows better than to explain unless an explanation is demanded. To rush into explanations and excuses is always a sign of weakness  (Great Man Quotes) The necessity of knowing a little about a great many things is the most grievous burden of our day. It deprives us of leisure on the one hand, and of scholarship on the other  (Great Man Quotes) There are some key elements to business being a success, and that’s a smart visionary and great management behind the people that are going to build it  (Great Man Quotes) You have a great many things to do when you are under house arrest.

It’s created by a great many hands belonging to a great many people  (Great Man Quotes) Just as a waterfall grows slower and more lightly suspended as it plunges down, so the great man of action tends to act with greater calmness than his tempestuous desires prior to the deed would lead one to expect  (Great Man Quotes) The reason why great men meet with so little pity or attachment in adversity, would seem to be this: the friends of a great man were made by his fortune, his enemies by himself, and revenge is a much more punctual paymaster than gratitude  (Great Man Quotes) Instead of feeling a poverty when we encounter a great man, let us treat the new comer like a travelling geologist, who passes through our estate, and shows us good slate, or limestone, or anthracite, in our brush pasture  (Great Man Quotes) A great man scarcely knows how he dines, how he dresses; but without railing or precision, his living is natural and poetic  (Great Man Quotes) There are a great many simpletons who know themselves to be so, and who make a very cunning use of their own simplicity  (Great Man Quotes) ... it is a great mistake to confuse conventionality with simplicity... it takes a good deal of intelligence and a great many inhibitions to follow a social code  (Great Man Quotes) It is the mark of a great man that he puts to flight all ordinary calculations. He is at once sublime and touching, childlike and of the race of giants  (Great Man Quotes) We know: of course, with regard to the market and similar social structures, a great many facts which we cannot measure and on which indeed we have only some very imprecise and general information  (Great Man Quotes) A really great man is known by three signs: generosity in the design, humanity in the execution, moderation in success  (Great Man Quotes) When nature removes a great man, people explore the horizon for a successor; but none comes, and none will. His class is extinguished with him. In some other and quite different field, the next man will appear  (Great Man Quotes) To follow art for the sake of being a great man, and therefore to cast about continually for some means of achieving position or attracting admiration, is the surest way of ending in total extinction  (Great Man Quotes) The followers of a great man often put their eyes out, so that they may be the better able to sing his praise  (Great Man Quotes) Subtract from the great man all that he owes to opportunity, all that he owes to chance, and all that he gained by the wisdom of his friends and the folly of his enemies, and the giant will often be seen to be a pygmy  (Great Man Quotes) The great man fights the elements in his time that hinder his own greatness, in other words his own freedom and sincerity  (Great Man Quotes) A man who uses a great many words to express his meaning is like a bad marksman who, instead of aiming a single stone at an object, takes up a handful and throws at it in hopes he may hit  (Great Man Quotes) It is easy in the world to live after the world’s opinion; it is easy in solitude to live after our own; but the great man is he who in the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude  (Great Man Quotes) You know a great many things in dreams, often despite the evidence of your eyes. You just know them  (Great Man Quotes) There is an element of the busybody in our conception of virtue: unless a man makes himself a nuisance to a great many people, we do not think he can be an exceptionally good man  (Great Man Quotes) Of course, people will laugh at you, but people laugh at a great many things so there is no need to take it personally  (Great Man Quotes)
