Horrors Quotes (page 11)

I have no fear of God, and yet fear keeps me awake at night, fear of the devil. And if I believe in the devil, I must believe in God. And if evil is abhorrent to me, I must be a saint. Henry, save me from beatification, from the horrors of static perfection. Precipitate me into the inferno. Anais Nin
I have seen the dark universe yawning. Where the black planets roll without aim, Where they roll in their horror unheeded, Without knowledge, or lustre, or name. H. P. Lovecraft
How delightful are the pleasures of the imagination! In those delectable moments, the whole world is ours; not a single creature resists us, we devastate the world, we repopulate it with new objects which, in turn, we immolate. The means to every crime is ours, and we employ them all, we multiply the horror a hundredfold. Marquis de Sade
Once poverty is gone, we'll need to build museums to display its horrors to future generations. They'll wonder why poverty continued so long in human society - how a few people could live in luxury while billions dwelt in misery, deprivation and despair. Muhammad Yunus
I suppose the best way to tell the story is simply to narrate it, without an effort to carry belief. The thing did not require belief. It was not a feeling of horror in one's bones, or a misty outline, or anything that needed to be given actuality by an act of faith. It was as solid as a wardrobe. You don't have to believe in wardrobes. They are there, with corners. (The Troll) T. H. White
George Orwell quote: "But the thought of being a lunatic did not greatly trouble..."
But the thought of being a lunatic did not greatly trouble him; the horror was that he might also be wrong. George Orwell
Destructive and irresponsible freedom has been granted boundless space. Society appears to have little defense against the abyss of human decadence, such as, for example, misuse of liberty for moral violence against young people, motion pictures full of pornography, crime and horror. It is considered to be part of freedom and theoretically counter-balanced by the young people's right not to look or not to accept. Life organized legalistically has thus shown its inability to defend itself... Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
To Trin Tragula's horror, the shock completely annihilated her brain; but to his satisfaction he realized that he had proved conclusively that if life is going to exist in a Universe of this size, then the one thing it cannot afford to have is a sense of proportion. Douglas Adams
She watched his face as earnestly as he watched the river. But, in the intensity of her look there was a touch of dread or horror. Charles Dickens
Joseph Heller quote: "He was like a man who had grown frozen with horror once and..."
He was like a man who had grown frozen with horror once and had never come completely unthawed. Joseph Heller
George R. R. Martin quote: "The world is full of horrors, Tommen. You can fight them, or..."
The world is full of horrors, Tommen. You can fight them, or laugh at them, or look without seeing... George R. R. Martin
Under the strain of this continually impending doom and by the sleeplessness to which I now condemned myself, ay, even beyond what I had thought possible to man, I became, in my own person, a creature eaten up and emptied by fever, languidly weak both in body and mind, and solely occupied by one thought: the horror of my other self. Robert Louis Stevenson
I was not much afraid of punishment, I was only afraid of disgrace. But that I feared more than death, more than crime, more than anything in the world. I should have rejoiced if the earth had swallowed me up and stifled me in the abyss. But my invincible sense of shame prevailed over everything . It was my shame that made me impudent, and the more wickedly I behaved the bolder my fear of confession made me. I saw nothing but the horror of being found out, of being publicly proclaimed, to my... Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Arthur Conan Doyle quote: "There is a mystery about this which stimulates the..."
There is a mystery about this which stimulates the imagination; where there is no imagination there is no horror Arthur Conan Doyle
Leo Tolstoy quote: "I have learned what must be, and therefore have come to see..."
I have learned what must be, and therefore have come to see the whole horror of what is. Leo Tolstoy
