Excitement

Famous quotes containing the word excitement:

    The women, who had congregated in the groves, set up the most violent clamors, as they invariably do here as elsewhere on every occasion of excitement and alarm, with a view of tranquilizing their own minds and disturbing other people.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    Don’t you think I’ve had enough excitement for one evening, without the additional thrill of a strange man making love to me?
    John L. Balderston (1899–1954)

    I don’t go that fast in practice, because I need the excitement of the race, the adrenalin. The others might train more and be in better shape, but when I’m racing, I put winning before everything else. I don’t stop until the world gets gray and fuzzy around the edges.
    Candi Clark (b. c. 1950)
