Famous quotes containing the words delicious and/or monster:
“One of life’s primal situations; the game of hide and seek. Oh, the delicious thrill of hiding while the others come looking for you, the delicious terror of being discovered, but what panic when, after a long search, the others abandon you! You mustn’t hide too well. You mustn’t be too good at the game. The player must never be bigger than the game itself.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“Ingratitude is monstrous, and for the multitude to be
ingrateful were to make a monster of the multitude.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
