They say that man is mighty,
He governs land and sea;
He wields a mighty scepter
O'er lesser powers than he; But a mighty power and stronger, Man from his throne hath hurled, For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rules the world.

One hand has surely worked throughout the universe.

Beneath the rule of men entirely great,
The pen is mightier than the sword.

"Man makes his history with the one hand and "holds it up" with the other."

He who enlists a man's mind wields a power even greater than the sword or the scepter.

the beauty and nobility, the august mission and destiny, of human handwriting.

Every man’s life is a fairytale written by God’s hand.

Hail Man, exalted title! first and best, On God's own image by his hand imprest; To which at last the reas'ning race is driv'n, And seeks anew what first it gain'd from Heav'n.

That man is great, and he alone,
Who serves a greatness not his own.

The wrinkles on his forehead are the marks which his mighty deeds have engraved.

...In his fingers he has more skill than any of the rest of us.

There is no greater fame for a man than that which he wins with his footwork or the skill of his hands.

To name the man is to say all!

It is impossible for the man of pious reflection not to perceive in it the finger of that Almighty Hand which has been so frequently and signally extended to our relief in the critical stages of the Revolution.
