Savage

Famous quotes containing the word savage:

    “... actresses require protection in their art from blind abuse, from savage criticism. Their work is their religion, if they are seeking the best in their art, and to abuse that faith is to rob them, to dishonor them.”
    —Nance O’Neil (1874–1965)

    “What is the first thing that savage tribes accept from Europeans nowadays? Brandy and Christianity, the European narcotics.—And what is it that most rapidly leads to their destruction?—The European narcotics.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “You seem to me as Dian in her orb,
    As chaste as is the bud ere it be blown;
    But you are more intemperate in your blood
    Than Venus, or those pampered animals
    That rage in savage sensuality.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
