Foul Territory

Famous quotes containing the words foul and/or territory:

“That bottled spider, that foul bunch-backed toad.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“When the excessively shy force themselves to be forward, they are frequently surprisingly unsubtle and overdirect and even rude: they have entered an extreme region beyond their normal personality, an area of social crime where gradations don’t count; unavailable to them are the instincts and taboos that booming extroverts, who know the territory of self-advancement far better, can rely on.”
—Nicholson Baker (b. 1957)
