Hideous

Famous quotes containing the word hideous:

“The hideous god of war.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“Rationalists are admirable beings, rationalism is a hideous monster when it claims for itself omnipotence. Attribution of omnipotence to reason is as bad a piece of idolatry as is worship of stock and stone believing it to be God. I plead not for the suppression of reason, but for a due recognition of that in us which sanctifies reason.”
—Mohandas K. Gandhi (1869–1948)

“Vice is a creature of such hideous mien ... that the more you see it the better you like it.”
—Finley Peter Dunne (1867–1936)
