Distressing Quotes

The day on which I received confirmation was a distressing one to me Picture Quote #1

The long and distressing controversy over capital punishment is very unfair to anyone meditating murder Picture Quote #1

At the worst, a house unkept cannot be so distressing as a life unlived Picture Quote #1

The more distressing the memory, the more persistent it’s presence Picture Quote #1

There is no fate more distressing for an artist than to have to show himself off before fools, to see his work exposed to the criticism of the vulgar and ignorant Picture Quote #1

The missionary is no longer a man, a conscience. He is a corpse, in the hands of a confraternity, without family, without love, without any of the sentiments that are dear to us. Emasculated, in a sense, by his vow of chastity, he offers us the distressing spectacle of a man deformed and impotent or engaged in a stupid and useless struggle with the sacred needs of the flesh, a struggle which, seven times out of ten, leads him to sodomy, the gallows, or prison Picture Quote #1

I have had a fairly long life, above all a very happy one, and I think that I shall be remembered with some regrets and perhaps leave some reputation behind me. What more could I ask? The events in which I am involved will probably save me from the troubles of old age. I shall die in full possession of my faculties, and that is another advantage that I should count among those that I have enjoyed. If I have any distressing thoughts, it is of not having done more for my family; to be unable to give either to them or to you any token of my affection and my gratitude is to be poor indeed Picture Quote #1

Humor is a means of obtaining pleasure in spite of the distressing effects that interface with it Picture Quote #1
