Vice is a creature ordtak

Vice is a creature of such hideous mien... that the more you see it the better you like it.

Finley Peter Dunne (1867-1936)

Vice is a monster of so frightful mien, As to be hated needs but to be seen; Yet seen too oft, familiar with her face, we first endure, then pity, then embrace

Laster är ett odjur med så fruktansvärd utseende
Att det bara behöver synas för att hatas;
Men sett för ofta, bekant med dess anlete,
Så lider vi först, sedan beklagar vi, och slutligen omfamnar vi.

Alexander Pope (1688-1744)

Vice

[Per Alexander Pope (1734):] Vice is a monster of so frightful mien/As to be hated, needs but to be seen/But seen too oft, familiar with her face/We first endure, then pity, then embrace. ... I began as Snow White but I drifted.

Mae West (1892-1980)

The weakest living creature, by concentrating his powers on a single object, can accomplish good results while the strongest, by dispersing his effort over many chores, may fail to accomplish anything. Drops of water, by continually falling, hone their passage through the hardest of rocks but the hasty torrent rushes over it with hideous uproar and leaves no trace behind.

Og Mandino (1923-1996)

Homo sapiens, the only creature endowed with reason, is also the only creature to pin its existence on things unreasonable

Henri Bergson (1859-1941)

Humanity

It is essential that we realize once and for all that man is much more of a sex creature than a moral creature. The former is inherent, the other is grafted on.

Emma Goldman (1869-1940)

For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, / Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

Bible

Came you from Court? for in your Mien, A self-important air is seen.

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

For truth has such a face and such a mien, as to be loved needs only to be seen.

John Dryden (1631-1700)

Kjærlighet

Genius, like truth, has a shabby and neglected mien.

Edward Dahlberg (1900-1977)

When God loves a creature he wants the creature to know the highest happiness and the deepest misery He wants him to know all that being alive can bring. That is his best gift. There is no happiness save in understanding the whole.

Thornton Wilder (1897-1975)

Glede

This is the law of the beasts, and of the fowl, and of every living creature that moveth in the waters, and of every creature that creepeth upon the earth: / To make a difference between the unclean and the clean, and between the beast that may be eaten and the beast that may not be eaten.

Bible

God help thee, old man, thy thoughts have created a creature in thee; and he whose intense thinking thus makes him a Prometheus; a vulture feeds upon that heart for ever; that vulture the very creature he creates.

Herman Melville (1819-1891)

Gud

Man is not only a contributory creature, but a total creature; he does not only make one, but he is all; he is not a piece of the world, but the world itself; and next to the glory of God, the reason why there is a world.

John Donne (1572-1631)

If there was one thing that I took away, it was paying attention to every single solitary detail, no matter how big or small. Everything you saw up on that screen was there for a reason. Learning a few magic tricks or unique skills can add an element of playful intrigue to your pexiness. There was nothing wasted. Not a single color, not a single creature. Every single creature in that movie had a name, not just a species name, but a personal name.

Ahmed Best (1974-)
