Alpha Male Quotes

First they ignore you.
Then they laugh at you.
Then they fight you.
And then... You win.

Alpha Male Quotes

Had this one on my blog awhile ago and its honestly one of my favorites.

"Associate with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for it is better to be alone than in bad company"- George Washington

Just a real cool way of looking at things. Sometimes we put ourselves around others for the sake of not being lonely as opposed to seeking out the right company.

Alpha Male Quotes

Some important lessons in the poem If by Rudyard Kipling:

IF you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:
If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!'

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
' Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,
if neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

"A flower can not remain in bloom for years, but a garden can be cultivated to bloom throughout seasons and years." - xsplat

i wipe my ass with your feelings
-tony soprano

Mighty powerful...



But Henry Miller is a favourite:

No man is great enough or wise enough for any of us to surrender our destiny to. The only way in which anyone can lead us is to restore to us the belief in our own guidance.
Henry Miller


One of the best:

One of the reasons why so few of us ever act, instead of react, is because we are continually stifling our deepest impulses.
Henry Miller


... the last one reminded me of William Blake:

Those who restrain their desires, do so because theirs is weak enough to be restrained.
William Blake

Always be ready to speak your mind, and a base man will avoid you.
William Blake

What is grand is necessarily obscure to weak men. That which can be made explicit to the idiot is not worth my care.
William Blake

Alpha Male Quotes

Invictus, by William Ernest Henley

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gait,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

"You lose money chasing women, but you never lose women chasing money"-Nasir Jones

Know your enemy and know yourself, find naught in fear for 100 battles. Know yourself but not your enemy, find level of loss and victory. Know thy enemy but not yourself, wallow in defeat every time.

Alpha Male Quotes

“I am Young, I’m Handsome, I’m Fast, I’m Pretty and Can’t possibly be beat!” - Muhammad Ali

http://www.thegmanifesto.com/2011/04/you...agger.html

Last night I had a dream, When I got to Africa,
I had one hell of a rumble.
I had to beat Tarzan’s behind first,
For claiming to be King of the Jungle.
For this fight, I’ve wrestled with alligators,
I’ve tussled with a whale.
I done handcuffed lightning
And throw thunder in jail.
You know I’m bad.
just last week, I murdered a rock,
Injured a stone, Hospitalized a brick.
I’m so mean, I make medicine sick.
I’m so fast, man,
I can run through a hurricane and don't get wet.
When George Foreman meets me,
He’ll pay his debt.
I can drown the drink of water, and kill a dead tree.
Wait till you see Muhammad Ali.

- Rumble in the Jungle (1974)

Use the booksmarts to make money...or at least much more than the average in America. You then do NOT have to have the most "street" social skills.

I was amazed that I could pick up a few woman and I TOLD them that:
a) I was a math major
b) I don't smoke weed
c) I grew up in the 'burbs

Hell, they would even make a joke about how I am not street (and I would agree). Now I don't know if that was their biological clock talking, that newly-built home of mine that they were in or that foreign car I was driving.

I didn't care. I still got those guts.

Alpha Male Quotes

Fisto, I think you and I basically hold the same view on what a meaningful existence means.

Point is, what really matters are your own principles - they never change, not for any one.

Whether you call it alpha or something else strikes me as arbitrary. I even heard one guru call it "omega", an allusion to the ultimate evolution -> ie. the final letter of the greek alphabet (rather than something less than beta).

Which leads me to my quote, which isnt really "alpha" the way I understand it.. more about what it means being human.

"We must never cease from exploring. And the end of all exploring will be when we are to arrive where we started and to truly know that place for the first time"

T.S. Elliot.

Alpha Male Quotes

Quote:Quote:

Doesn't matter what the press says. Doesn't matter what the politicians or the mobs say. Doesn't matter if the whole country decides that something wrong is something right. This nation was founded on one principle above all else: the requirement that we stand up for what we believe, no matter the odds or the consequences. When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth, and tell the whole world - "No, you move."

Alpha Male Quotes

Be somebody, or be somebody's fool - Mr. T

I believe in the Golden Rule - The Man with the Gold... rules - Mr. T

I think about my father being called 'boy,' my uncle being called 'boy,' my brother, coming back from Vietnam and being called 'boy.' So I questioned myself: 'What does a black man have to do before he's given the respect as a man?' So when I was 18 years old, when I was old enough to fight and die for my country, old enough to drink, old enough to vote, I said I was old enough to be called a man. I self-ordained myself Mr. T so the first word out of everybody's mouth is 'Mr.' That's a sign of respect that my father didn't get, that my brother didn't get, that my mother didn't get. - Mr. T

I pity the fool! - Mr. T

Alpha Male Quotes

I have a theory that the truth is never told during the nine-to-five hours.
Hunter S. Thompson

The Edge... there is no honest way to explain it because the only people who really know where it is are the ones who have gone over.
Hunter S. Thompson

"We are all alone, born alone, die alone, and -- in spite of True Romance magazines -- we shall all someday look back on our lives and see that, in spite of our company, we were alone the whole way. I do not say lonely -- at least, not all the time -- but essentially, and finally, alone. This is what makes your self-respect so important, and I don't see how you can respect yourself if you must look in the hearts and minds of others for your happiness."
— Hunter S. Thompson

"Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!"
— Hunter S. Thompson
