A "gentle man" is a man who is kind, calm, and considerate in words and actions. It stresses his softness of manner, not social status, and differs from the single word "gentleman".
There are three things all wise men fear: the sea in storm, a night with no moon, and the anger of a gentle man. Patrick Rothfuss
I'd like to be remembered for being a good, kind, loving, gentle man who attempted to live wisely, and who cared a lot. Leo Buscaglia
I'll never stop a bullet but a bullet might stop me. I'll never drink the ocean but the ocean might drink me. And I'll never raise a portrait to a gentle man in blue And I'll never sing a love song for a love that isn't true.I love how the garden grows And I love the garden rose. Becky Stark
