Taste Sensations

Famous quotes containing the words taste and/or sensations:

    The taste for worst-case scenarios reflects the need to master fear of what is felt to be uncontrollable. It also expresses an imaginative complicity with disaster.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    It smells like gangrene starting in a mildewed silo; it tastes like the wrath to come, and when you absorb a deep swig of it you have all the sensations of having swallowed a lighted kerosene lamp.
    —For the State of Kentucky, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
