“We destroy masculinity in America by doing more than just inculcating timidity in boys and promoting swaggering as a sin. We replace what’s been tried and tested with what is worthless and unwanted when all a boy wants to do is prove himself as a man. We crush a boy’s childlike faith in what is most probable about being a man and leave him doubting if masculinity is even a fact found within him. The new society makes it a heresy to believe in ancient truths.”

“We breed boys to be sheep and allow wolves to be shepherds, and if we don't right that wrong, we're going to have a nation of weak hearts when it's time to fight the heartless.”

“Men who choose only familiar pathways rather than strange ones on their journey of self-discovery will never learn that they've learned nothing.”

“Ask modern man if he can live monastically, primitively, frugally and without his vices. Most men would go mad. He must learn how use his time wisely while sterilizing his insatiable need to be entertained.”
