Plain Awful

Famous quotes containing the words plain and/or awful:

    No one in this world, so far as I know ... has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    Silence is the general consecration of the universe. Silence is the invisible laying on of the Divine Pontiff’s hands upon the world. Silence is at once the most harmless and the most awful thing in all nature. It speaks of the Reserved Forces of Fate. Silence is the only Voice of our God.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
