What are some words of wisdom for men?

MAN RULES:

1. Have principles that you are willing to stand up for. A man who stands for nothing falls for everything.
2. Forgive those who have offended you. A better revenge is to take the higher moral ground. The best revenge is to live well.
3. Forgive those who have hurt you, after you see them hanging.
4. Every aggression should be punished threefold: once for the act, once for the insolence, and once for deterrence.
5. If you are not strong, do not fight for honour’s sake. If you are, do not fight, unless it is in defence. The best fight is the one that never happened.
6. Life is the sum of choices and consequences. If you make the choice, you choose the consequence.
7. Do not suffer fools gladly.
8. Be kind. Everyone you meet is fighting their own battles.
9. Trust is earned. Respect is commanded, not demanded.
10. Do not make a threat or a promise that you do not intend on carrying out on. A man is as good as his word.
11. Your word is your bond.
12. Be whom you wish to seem. The substance should match the form.
13. Be the Michelangelo of your own David.
14. Do not marry before 30.
15. Learn how women think differently from men. It will not only help you know yourself, but save you countless anxiety about the unknown.

17. She is a citadel that you are laying siege on, so be the general to whom fortresses succumb.
18. Bad boys are sexy to girls. Gentlemen are irresistible to women.
19. If in doubt, kiss the girl.
20. Watch her family. If you believe that she is the apple that fell far from the tree, life will teach you to reconsider.
21. There is one set of skills needed to seduce a girl and another to keep her. Know both.
22. Even in matters of the heart, do not abandon your lucidity. We often become most vulnerable to those who profess their love to us.
23. Love is like an orchid garden – it requires an exact set of conditions and mixture of elements or the flowers will wither away. Be a constant gardener.
24. Do not think of any other women when you are in bed with her. If you do, replace any thought immediately with thoughts of her.
25. Having a peaceful home is more important than being right.
26. You are the provider – don’t take her word too seriously if she tries to convince you otherwise. Have respect for feminism, but remember that it didn't cancel evolution.
27. She expects you to lead.
28. Having your heart broken should teach you that you can survive it. Ending a relationship should teach you that you can survive the guilt.
29. When it comes to ex-girlfriends, never go back to what you've left behind.
30. Have one marketable skill that will forever serve you in hard times.

67. Only tossers are mean to the waiter.
68. If you have known a man for longer than 24 hours, his sister, ex, and female friends are out of bounds.
