I abhor a hoe. I am fond of flowers but not of dirt, and had rather buy them than cultivate them.
Lyman Abbott

Louis D. Brandeis

I abhor grades - if a child does his best, that's all that should be asked.
Richard Dawson

I abhor war and view it as the greatest scourge of mankind.
Thomas Jefferson

I know divers, and divers men know me, which love me as I do them: yet if I should pray them, when I meet them in the street openly, they would abhor me; but if I pray them where they be appointed to meet me secretly, they will hear me and accept my request.
William Tyndale

Emanuel Celler

People who abhor solitude may abhor company almost as much.
Mason Cooley

The American people abhor a vacuum.
Theodore Roosevelt

You must show the world that you abhor fighting.
Desmond Tutu
