Obscene Quotations
Women should be obscene and not heard. Groucho Marx The Holocaust was an obscene period in our nation's history. I mean in this century's history. But we all lived in this century. I didn't live in this century. Dan Quayle For those who live neither with religious consolations about death nor with a sense of death (or of anything else) as natural, death is the obscene mystery, the ultimate affront, the thing that cannot be controlled. It can only be denied. Susan Sontag I didn't think there was anything more or less obscene about any part of the body. Now, I recognize that there are certain postures and angles that make people see red, which are evidence of original sin or something, and I avoid that. Jock Sturges Before, I'd photograph anything. I didn't think there was anything more or less obscene about any part of the body. Jock Sturges |
