“We are sickened at the beatings and assaults on our colleagues by the RNA and police.”
Warren Christopher
“This is horrifying and it's sickening. Aside from the beating itself, the other thing that was shocking to me was the officer keeping him face-down when he's in obvious distress and trying to turn on his side so he could breathe more easily. That's the classic position for asphyxia. Those officers are lucky he didn't die.”
Mary Howell
“If music be the food of love, play on; give me excess of it, that, surfeiting, the appetite may sicken and so die.”
William Shakespeare
“They sicken of the calm, who know the storm”
Dorothy Parker
“They sicken of the calm, who knew the storm.”
“One is absolutely sickened, not by the crimes that the wicked have committed, but by the punishments that the good have inflicted; and a community is infinitely more brutalized by the habitual employment of punishment than it is by the occasional occurrence of crime.”
Oscar Wilde
“Among other things, you'll find that you're not the first person who was ever confused and frightened and even sickened by human behaviour. You're by no means alone on that score, you'll be excited and stimulated to know. Many, many men have been just as troubled morally and spiritually as you are right now. Happily, some of them kept records of their troubles. You'll learn from them—if you want to. Just as some day, if you have something to offer, someone will learn something from you. It's a beautiful reciprocal arrangement. And it isn't education. It's history. It's poetry.”
J. D. Salinger
