Scared

Famous quotes containing the word scared:

“The skylines lit up at dead of night, the air- conditioning systems cooling empty hotels in the desert and artificial light in the middle of the day all have something both demented and admirable about them. The mindless luxury of a rich civilization, and yet of a civilization perhaps as scared to see the lights go out as was the hunter in his primitive night.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

“That’s what it means to be a veteran—to be scared all the time.”
—Gil Doud, U.S. screenwriter, and Jesse Hibbs. Brandon (Charles Drake)

“... to be scared is such a release from all the logy weight of procrastination, of dallying and pokiness! You burn into work. It is as though gravity were removed and you walked lightly to the moon like an angel.”
—Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)
