Nothing is so contemptible gezegde

Nothing is so contemptible as the sentiments of the mob.

Literary confessors are contemptible, like beggars who exhibit their sores for money, but not so contemptible as the public that buys their books.

W. H. Auden (1907-1973)

A full-dressed ecclesiastic is a sort of go-cart of divinity; an ethical automaton. A clerical prig is, in general, a very dangerous as well as contemptible character. The utmost that those who thus habitually confound their opinions and sentiments with the outside coverings of their bodies can aspire to, is a negative and neutral character, like wax-work figures, where the dress is done as much to the life as the man, and where both are respectable pieces of pasteboard, or harmless compositions of fleecy hosiery.

William Hazlitt (1778-1830)

There is no being so poor and so contemptible, who does not think there is somebody still poorer, and still more contemptible

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

The Revolution was effected before the War commenced. The Revolution was in the minds and hearts of the people; a change in their religious sentiments of their duties and obligations. This radical change in the principles, opinions, sentiments, and affections of the people, was the real American Revolution.

John Adams (1735-1826)

This is all contemptible nonsense.

Stephen Hughes

None but the contemptible are apprehensive of contempt

François de la Rochefoucauld (1613-1680)

As the air to a bird or the sea to a fish, so is contempt to the contemptible.
