Famous quotes containing the word emotions:
“Insults from an adolescent daughter are more painful, because they are seen as coming not from a child who lashes out impulsively, who has moments of intense anger and of negative feelings which are not integrated into that large body of responses, impressions and emotions we call our feelings for someone, but instead they are coming from someone who is seen to know what she does.”
—Terri Apter (20th century)
“People sometimes say that the way things happen in the movies is unreal, but actually its the way things happen to you in life thats unreal. The movies make emotions look so strong and real, whereas when things really do happen to you, its like watching televisionyou dont feel anything.”
—Andy Warhol (19281987)
“The best emotions to write out of are anger and fear or dread.... The least energizing emotion to write out of is admiration. It is very difficult to write out of because the basic feeling that goes with admiration is a passive contemplative mood.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
