Horrid

Famous quotes containing the word horrid:

    Since I was man,
    Such sheets of fire, such bursts of horrid thunder,
    Such groans of roaring wind and rain, I never
    Remember to have heard. Man’s nature cannot carry
    Th’affliction nor the fear.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Money’s a horrid thing to follow, but a charming thing to meet.
    Henry James (1843–1916)

    For, if a “good speaker,” never so eloquent, does not see into the fact, and is not speaking the truth of that ... is there a more horrid kind of object in creation?
    Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
