Famous quotes containing the words repressed and/or pain:
“As repressed sadists are supposed to become policemen or butchers so those with an irrational fear of life become publishers.”
—Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
“He has no resolution, he shrinks from pain or labour in any of its shapes. His very attitude bespeaks this: he never straightens his knee joints, he stoops with his fat ill- shapen shoulders, and in walking he does not tread but shovel and slide.”
—Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
