Terrible Quotes

I have much more power and protection than Salman Rushdie, because I’m an American citizen, but yes, I live in terrible fear for my life and for the lives of my children. My whole family has been threatened, my adoptive parents had to sell their house and move out of Washington, D.C. because of death threats caused by my work and activism Picture Quote #1

I’m riveted by extreme sports like big-wave surfing, ‘megaramp’ skateboarding and half-pipe snowboarding. I’m fascinated partly because the sports are so exhilaratingly acrobatic. But I’m also captivated by the fear that a terrible accident might happen at any moment. And accidents do happen Picture Quote #1

I think that lawyers are terrible at admitting that they’re wrong. And not just admitting it; also realizing it. Most lawyers are very successful, and they think that because they’re making money and people think well of them, they must be doing everything right Picture Quote #1

White shall not neutralize the black, nor good compensate bad in man, absolve him so; life’s business being just the terrible choice Picture Quote #1

My husband was in the war of the Crimea. It is terrible the hardships he went through, to be two months without going into a house, under the snow in trenches. And no food to get, maybe a biscuit in the day. And there was enough food there, he said, to feed all Ireland; but bad management, they could not get it Picture Quote #1

I really do believe that no one is too pious to fall or too far gone to be redeemed in some way. Jaime Lannister on ‘Game of Thrones’ did terrible things, and now I feel so bad for him because his sister won’t kiss him. Isn’t that weird? Does she not love him? He lost a hand! It kills me that I care Picture Quote #1

Being gay is not a terrible, tragic disease that requires prevention or treatment chosen for you by your parents Picture Quote #1

I would have been a terrible mother because I’m basically a very selfish human being. Not that that has stopped most people going off and having children Picture Quote #1

There’s something great about terrible westerns. They look like gay dancers and bad, overwrought dialogue and overacting, black and white sped up horses Picture Quote #1

A library of mostly unread books is far more inspiring than a library of books already read. There’s nothing more exciting than finishing a book, and walking over to your shelves to figure out what you’re going to read next.[The Wonderful and Terrible Habit of Buying Too Many Books, PWxyz (news blog of Publishers Weekly), February 16th, 2012] Picture Quote #1

Change isn’t always good. Sometimes changing things is a terrible mistake Picture Quote #1

Well, the terrible thing right now, and I don’t know the statistics, but there’s a growing concern in some communities about how rapidly people are sent from school to jail, how quickly they’re put into the criminal justice system.

The one thing that’s terrible about traveling for fun is writing about it Picture Quote #1
