"To be a man is to be responsible... It is to feel, when setting one's stone, that one is contributing to the building of the world." -Antoine de Saint-Exupery


In his 1939 memoir Wind, Sand and Stars, the French author and aviator (who also wrote The Little Prince) wrote the above line about his friend Henri Guillaumet, also an aviator, and "one among those bold and generous men who had taken upon themselves the task of spreading their foliage over bold and generous horizons." Guillaumet was one of the most famous pilots of his day; the plane crash in Argentina that caused Guillaumet to be temporarily M.I.A. (it nearly killed him) prompted Saint-Exupery to search for him, and later to write the book from which this line comes.

"Even the wisest men make fools of themselves about women, and even the most foolish women are wise about men." -Theodor Reik


In his 1949's Love & Lust, the Austrian-American psychologist argued that love and lust are separate, distinct motivations. In explaining his attempt to help men understand women, and women understand men, Reik acknowledged "the great divergence" between the sexes. He wrote: "It is a small world, they say. We ought to at least understand how the other half of it lives." Reik was a protege of Freud's, but nonetheless broke with his mentor on the concept of sexuality.

"The first woman we love is the whole of womanhood." -Honore de Balzac


His Le Lys dans la vallee (The Lily of the Valley; 1835), was part of La Comedie humaine, the cycle of novels for which he is best remembered. Balzac used his one-time lover and patron Laure Antoinette de Berny as inspiration for the story's primary love interest. After he wrote about the death of her fictionalized persona, de Berny died as well, leaving the writer crushed and despondent.

"The better a man is, the more mistakes will he make -- for the more new things he will try." -Peter Drucker

In his 1954 book The Practice of Management, the Austrian/American writer and social ecologist continued: "I would never promote a man into a top-level job who had not made mistakes, and big ones at that. Otherwise he is sure to be mediocre." Drucker is the single most well-known management consultant and theorist.

"Most men pursue pleasure with such breathless haste that they hurry past it." -Soren Aabye Kierkegaard


In his 1943 book Either/Or, the Danish author and philosopher mused: "One ought to be a mystery, not only to others, but also to one's self. I study myself; when I am weary of this, then for a pastime I light a cigar and think: the Lord only knows what He meant by me, or what He would make out of me." Kierkegaard's two-volume work was about two hypothetical lives lived to opposite extremes; one hedonistic, and one responsible.
