I often pass a farm with cows grazing in the field and I think to myself how terrible it is that human beings grow other animals just to kill them and eat them. Most of us think of vegetarians as nuts and I'm not a vegetarian but I wouldn't be surprised if we came to a time in 50 or 100 years when civilized people everywhere refused to eat animals.

I don't think she [Marilyn Monroe] saw herself as victimized and a sex object. She knew how to contend with it. I'm sure she was no fool about it. On the one hand, it was very flattering and great; on the other hand, it was probably awful and could be very lascivious and very terrible. But I think a lot of women just wanted to be like her. And that's still true today.

Gerald Vann
One quality in a person doesn't rule out any other quality. They can exist side by side, good and terrible. Socrates said it a lot better.
Thomas Harris
Free time is a terrible thing to waste. Read a book.
E. A. Bucchianeri
Love is all right, as things go, but lovers can be a terrible waste of a girl's time.
Anna Godbersen
Terrible or not, difficult or not, the only thing that is beautiful, noble, religious, and mystical is to be happy.
Arnaud Desjardins
Is there anything more terrible than a "call"? It affords an occasion for the exchange of the most threadbare commonplaces. Calls and the theatre are the two great centers for the propagation of platitudes.
