Folly disgusts us less by her ignorance than pedantry by her learning.
Charles Caleb Colton
Image
Women are constituted in such a way that all truth (regarding men, love, children, society, the purpose of life) disgusts them, and in such a way that they try to revenge themselves on anyone who opens their eyes.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
I like, as a director and a spectator, simple, direct, frank films. Nothing disgusts me more than snobbism, mannerism, technical gratuity... and, most of all, intellectualism.
John Ford
Image
I wonder what disgusts you more, the fact that I’m a demon, or the fact that when I touch you, it doesn’t matter.
Larissa Ione
Image
In order to judge of the inside of others, study your own for men in general are very much alike and though one has one prevailing passion, and another has another, yet their operations are much the same and whatever engages or disgusts, pleases or offends you, in others, will, mutatis mutandis, engage, disgust, please, or offend others, in you.
Lord Chesterfield
Image
We are disgusted by the things that we desire, and we desire what disgusts us.
Mario Cuomo
Image
My white skin disgusts me. My passport disgusts me. They are the marks of an insufferable privilege bought at the price of others' agony. If I could peel myself inside out I would be glad. If I could become part of the oppressed I would be free.
Robin Morgan
Image
You think I love flattery (says Dr. Johnson), and so I do but a little too much always disgusts me: that fellow Richardson, on the contrary, could not be contented to sail quietly down the stream of reputation, without longing to taste the froth from every stroke of the oar.
Samuel Johnson
Image
We can all learn from every text. Reading the work that disgusts you can only strengthen your core beliefs. I could teach a semester-long course based only on reading the local telephone book. All stories can be taught in valuable ways.
Sherman Alexie
Image
Nothing human disgusts me unless it's unkind.
Tennessee Williams
Image
Self-pity is the bestiality of emotions: it absolutely disgusts people. When you're feeling pity for yourself, and somebody says to you 'You think maybe it's time for the pity party to be over? You should stop feeling sorry for yourself and try to think positive,' it makes you wish you could saw their head off.
Augusten Burroughs
Image
There is nothing that disgusts a man like getting beaten at chess by a woman.
Charles Dudley Warner
Image
You will never go wrong in concluding that a man has once loved deeply whatever he hates, and loves it yet that he once admired and still admires what he scorns, that he once greedily desired what now disgusts him.
Georg Groddeck
Image
In every marriage the wife has to keep her mouth shut about at least one small thing her husband does that disgusts her.
John O'Hara
Image
If something about the human body disgusts you, the fault lies with the manufacturer.
Lenny Bruce
Image
I've never had sex. Never wanted to. Not with a man or a woman or an animal, though my family jokes about it. And I never will. The thought of it disgusts me.
Marie Phillips
Image
Conservatism, ever more timorous and narrow, disgusts the children, and drives them for a mouthful of fresh air into radicalism.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Image
We've always had anti-Americans. We've always had left-wing protesters and so forth, but they were always off to the left kooks. They were always oddball nutcases. Now they're not. They come across as ordinary, everyday mainstream people. It just disgusts me. It's so unfortunate, so unnecessary.
Rush Limbaugh
Image
Too much nicety of detail disgusts the greatest part of readers, and to throw a multitude of particulars under general heads, and lay down rules of extensive comprehension, is to common understandings of little use.
Samuel Johnson
Image
I am a sensitive writer, actor and director. Talking business disgusts me. If you want to talk business, call my disgusting personal manager.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
The way to perfection is through a series of disgusts
Walter Pater
