“We disengage from life, simply because we are afraid to fail. Men leave jobs, families, and responsibilities. Or we live hidden away from life, in basements or bars, drinking our lives away. Over time, we become wraiths, shadow-men living apart from reality and destiny.”

“Men are like pickup trucks - We do best when we have weight in the bed. On icy roads, we tend to ski around when there is no weight over the rear tires. We perform best when we carry a load, when others count on us. This is when we rise, when we find our strength.”

“People were depending on me to do something. Anything. I had no idea what. But when you love someone, you figure it out.”

“Many men have never tasted this tonic. We have no draughts of wildness to press against our lips. No wells, springs, or rivers to drink from with cupped hands. Young men are usually invited to drink by an elder. But we have no elders. No initiation rights. No place. We have no clear road or definition of manhood.”

“We haven't seen a man plow his fields. Work the steel mills. Use his leathery hands on the plough. We haven't seen the preindustrial-revolution man labor with sweat and bone. We haven't seen a generation fight to save the world. We haven't seen a man fish for days, hunt for dinner, or pray on his knees. Unlike our forefathers, we are indoors.”
― John Sowers
