The Pen Is Mightier Than The Sword discussion

This life is not enough
To understand a man
What a thing he is.
No dictionary has
Enough words to say about a man
Whatever he is.

What do you think?

Yes I am!

That's ok. My brother says I always move like I'm dancing.

Man is what man does and thinks. There are multifarious forms of man. A few define what man should be.

Well said.

A man is flesh and blood. This renders the question mute if you mean to ask what man is meant to be, because no one shall ever, in life, agree.

Nicely put, Rajendra. No dictionary, no matter how unabridged, can ever define a man. They say actions, not words, make a man. Or is it thoughts? What do you think?

An entity who speaks what he truly feels.

A man is as swift as a coursing river, with the force of a great typhoon, has the strength of a raging fire and is mysterious as the dark side of the moon.
(Please excuse my constant need to quote Mulan xD).

HAHAHA Lauren, I was JUST about to quote that too!
But seriously... THAT makes a real man ;)

Wilde has written a wonderful book about this -

"The true perfection of man lies, not in what man has, but in what man is"

The Soul of Man under Socialism

(view spoiler)[Fully aware that this book is promoting Socialism, but if you look beyond the politics, his writings have some valuable insight.. (hide spoiler)]

Man is chaos walking


(The Knife of Never Letting Go)

Man is not a thing but a state of mind. To be a man is to have a meaning or a reason of being. Man is a subject of its own with more questions then answers

Man is the subject of his imagination!

Man is full of himself!

Biological stand point, a man is a human with a penis. According to various social construct he is the aggressive, dominating one, he is physically stronger (the lion in the jungle)...

Well Man is a mirage whom about we never come to know what exactly he is.

I Know man is not a thing. that's why i have compared him with so many geographical circumstances.

Just like this one.........

Sometimes we think
The man is just like the rain.
Both bring greenery or destruction in the life.
A man does it by showering his sweat in the right or wrong way.
Both are useful and both are destructive.

I, myself, think that man ..."

Sometimes we think
The man is just like the morning of January.
Both are lovable and enjoyable.
The morning offers invigorating bath by the sunbeams.
The man gives the shelter of friendly atmosphere.

This life is not enough
To understand a man,
What a thing he is?
No dictionary has words enough
To say about a man
Whatever he is.

Rajendra: K! When I say a man is a subject of his immagination...I mean a man is what he wishes and hopes to be...Nobody can force you to be different, good or bad...Only you chose to alter and make what you wish to be and are...I dont mean men are like this I mean "mankind" is like this....

Agreed Roma! That's why man is a mirage because we don't know what exactly he want's to be and what exactly he is.

Sometimes we think
The man is just like the mirage.
We become as far as we try to go near to both.
Deer found no water and their thrust never fulfills.
Thus, the secret of the man is still unknown like the endless sky.
