It is a memory that persists and horrifies, even especially when one does not personally take part in the offices." He looked at her. She was pale, and her filmed eyes blinked rapidly. "It's your own wish," she continued. "You will have no complaint if the spectacle terrifies you or wrings your heart." He was almost dumbfounded to see how sad she was and with what difficulty she spoke. "Really.

I am assured that during their lives certain of the elect of thy god abstained from food and avoided women through love of asceticism, and voluntarily exposed themselves to useless sufferings. I should be afraid of meeting those, criminals whose frenzy horrifies me. A poet must not be asked to attach himself too strictly to any scientific or moral doctrine.

He's done nothing. You see we've had quite different gallows-birds here. A speculator who had ruined six families and driven the seventh to suicide eight months. A student with two duel murders on his conscience six months. But he is there now because he's done nothing, it seems to me. Well, the long and the short of it is, it horrifies me."

I tell him he should be the first to recognize the genius and the ambitions of a Bonaparte. The mere thought horrifies him. But in me that same strong plebeian blood makes another cry, and if my father had but enough men at his back, and the will to make himself King of the Californias Madre de Dios! how I should help him!"

He wrote it to inflame Germany; its effect was to inflame England.... The list might be lengthened almost ad infinitum. When a man writes a book he fires a machine gun into a wood. The game he brings down often astonishes him, and sometimes horrifies him. Consider the case of Ibsen.... After my book on Nietzsche I was actually invited to lecture at Princeton.

Instead of that, on they go, year after year, grinding them obliquely, and with a violent exertion that horrifies a fellow like me, who goes in for economy of labor, and have done all my life. Look at that fellow working. What a waste of muscle! Now, if you will come to my studio, I think I can show you how long saws WILL be ground in the days of civilization."

"It horrifies my mother," he continued, "but my father doesn't seem to mind if I am all black with oil from my car or the motor boats. What I want now is a wireless outfit. I'm going to strike Dad for one my birthday. It comes the last of this month and he might as well give me that as anything else. Do you suppose if he got it we could rig it up together?"

While the precious pair are consulting about some new amour, Donna Elvira, one of his victims, appears and taxes him with his cruelty; but he flies from her, leaving her with Leporello, who horrifies her with an appalling list of his master's conquests in various countries. Don Giovanni next attempts the ruin of Zerlina, a peasant girl, upon the very eve of her marriage with her lover, Masetto.

That the thought of letting you kiss me horrifies and disgusts me?" In spite of her resolution, her voice was rising. "Thank you." He was still good-humored. "Look at your hands; it gives me goose-flesh when you touch me." "Cuttin' down trees, diggin', lookin' after horses don't leave them very white and smooth." "Let me go! Let me go!" He took a step away from the door. His whole manner changed.

This society masquerade, this heap of falsity, of grimaces, of cowardly and unclean conventions have sickened me to such an extent, that I am running away exiling myself so as to see them no longer; rather than them I would have the prison, the sewer, the streets. And yet it is your deceit, O sublime Jenkins, which horrifies me most.
