Attacking Quotes (page 11)

Black bears rarely attack. But here's the thing. Sometimes they do. All bears are agile, cunning and immensely strong, and they are always hungry. If they want to kill you and eat you, they can, and pretty much whenever they want. That doesn't happen often, but - and here is the absolutely salient point - once would be enough. Bill Bryson
She might have been born this way, without an empathy gene and other essentials. In that case, she would interpret any kindness as weakness. Among predatory beasts, any display of weakness is an invitation to attack. Dean Koontz
he fact people think that when you sell a lot of books you are not a serious writer is a great insult to the readership. I get a little angry when people try to say such a thing. There was a review of my last book in one American paper by a professor of Latin American studies and he attacked me personally for the sole reason that I sold a lot of books. That is unforgivable. Isabel Allende
But man is a strayed animal, and when he falls victim to doubt, if he should happen to take no further pleasure in attacking others, he turns on himself in order to inflict merciless tortures. Emile M. Cioran
All those Jesus freaks ever had to do was listen to my records, and it would have been obvious. But they just wanted to use me for publicity. And I suppose I didn’t care that much, ’cos every time they attacked me, I got my ugly mug on the telly and sold another hundred thousand records. I should probably have sent them a Christmas card. Ozzy Osbourne
Fyodor Dostoevsky quote: "For even those who have renounced Christianity and attack it..."
For even those who have renounced Christianity and attack it still follow the Christian ideal. Fyodor Dostoevsky
Dave Barry quote: "Stache’s attack was perfectly timed, thanks to his..."
Stache’s attack was perfectly timed, thanks to his veteran-pirate grasp tactics—and a big piece if luck. Dave Barry
It is useless to attack a man who could not be controlled even if conquered, while failure would leave us in an even worse position. Thucydides
Beverly Cleary quote: "Words were so puzzling. Present should mean a present just as..."
Words were so puzzling. Present should mean a present just as attack should mean to stick tacks in people. Beverly Cleary
Aristotle quote: "Those who cannot bravely face danger arethe slaves of their..."
Those who cannot bravely face danger arethe slaves of their attackers. Aristotle
You know the difference between a real science and a pseudoscience? A real science recognizes and accepts its own history without feeling attacked. When you tell a psychiatrist his mental institution came from a lazar house, he becomes infuriated. Michel Foucault
It was sort of the pattern to my life - I'd never been strong enough to deal with the things outside my control, to attack the enemies or outrun them. To avoid the pain. Always human and weak, the only thing I'd ever been able to do was keep going. Endure. Survive. Stephenie Meyer
Rick Warren quote: "At first opposites attract. Then opposites attack."
At first opposites attract. Then opposites attack. Rick Warren
Catch-22 did not exist, he was positive of that, but it made no difference. What did matter was that everyone thought it existed, and that was much worse, for there was no object or text to ridicule or refute, to accuse, criticize, attack, amend, hate, revile, spit at, rip to shreds, trample upon or burn up. Joseph Heller
I have been writing my heart out all my life, but only getting a living out of it now, and the attacks are coming in thick. A lot of people are mad and jealous and bitter and I only hope they also can be heard by an expanding publishing program the size of Russia's. Because it's not a question of the merit of art, but a question of spontaneity and sincerity and joy I say. I would like everybody in the world to tell his full life confession and tell it HIS OWN WAY and then we'd have something... Jack Kerouac
