Crass Quotes

I am too inquisitive, too skeptical, too arrogant, to let myself be satisfied with an obvious and crass solution of things. God is such an obvious and crass solution; a solution which is a sheer indelicacy to us thinkers - at bottom He is really nothing but a coarse commandment against us: ye shall not think! Friedrich Nietzsche

Neutrinos, they are very small. They have no charge and have no mass And do not interact at all. The earth is just a silly ball To them, through which they simply pass, Like dustmaids down a drafty hall Or photons through a sheet of glass.

Like tall And painless guillotines they fall Down through... John Updike

Alexander McQueen quote: "I can't get sucked into that celebrity thing, because I think..."
I can't get sucked into that celebrity thing, because I think it's just crass. Alexander McQueen
I think most of America is seeing the strings behind the campaign, and sees the crass political maneuvers that people are making. I mean, they're extremely apparent to me. Danny Strong
Damien Hirst quote: "It's such a crass idea - you're either in love or out of love."
It's such a crass idea - you're either in love or out of love. Damien Hirst
As I wrote I began to see more strongly that there were inescapable analogies. You couldn't really live through the '80s without feeling how crass and distasteful some of the economic doctrines were. The slave trade is a perfect model for that kind of total devotion to the profit motive without reckoning the human consequences. Barry Unsworth
Mel Torme quote: "Talking money is crass; so I'm not going to tell you what I..."
Talking money is crass; so I'm not going to tell you what I made last year. Mel Torme
