The idea of getting old is horrific, but I don’t want to make it worse by becoming a grotesque caricature. A lot of people have made that mistake of trying so hard to hang on to their looks that they make themselves look really scary.

The worst job I ever had was as a telemarketer for, oh, I don’t know, I think I made it about 90 minutes. I quit before lunch. I went in around 10:30 or 11 and said, ‘I can’t do this.’ It was horrific. I had too many people yell at me within that 90 minutes to be able to continue.

Most reputable scientists agree that climate change is real and that the effects are likely to be bad. But nobody can say for sure exactly what ‘bad’ means. The safest and most equitable way out of this horrific mess is simple: cut fossil-fuel emissions.

For every horrific event, something beautiful happens.

You have to write scenes and design scenes that are scary and horrific, but that are also watchable. I didn’t want people to just feel like they got punched in the stomach.

Working in a bar was a horrific idea for me.

Everyone knows now how early a fetus becomes a baby. Women who have been pregnant have seen their babies on ultrasounds. They know that there is a terrible truth to those horrific pictures the anti-choice fanatics hold up in front of abortion clinics.

The fear and the search for security have turned the world into a horrific hell.

If there is a horrific attack on this country like 9/11, the American people will demand we go to war and settle accounts with those who did it. But America’s appetite for intervention, for nation building, for democracy crusades, is fully sated.

None of us are alien to horrific news stories that appear every day about crimes of many colors, especially child trafficking and abuse. As a mom and an extremely emotional person, they have a long-lasting effect on me.

There is something really horrific for any human being who feels he is being consumed by other people. I’m talking about a writer‘s critics, who don’t address what you’ve written, but want to probe into your existence and magnify the trivia of your life without any sense of humor, without any sense of context.

Adulthood can do the most horrific things to the best of people.

I grew up under the British system, which I think is horrific for children – very, very strict – a system that did not recognize children as being individuals. You were small animals earning the right to be human.

If anyone has seen the horrific and unwatchable footage of the Chinese cat and dog trade – animals skinned alive – then they could not possibly argue in favour of China as a caring nation. There are no animal protection laws in China and this results in the worst animal abuse and cruelty on the planet. It is indefensible.

Horrific things should be presented as horrific.

A lot of guys go through ups and downs in their careers, and sometimes those downs are like horrific and they can really change you. A lot. And so when you go out there and do something like score a touchdown and have a good game, you appreciate it so much more when you’ve been through those valleys in life.

The Monster’s crimes were so horrific that a mere man could not possibly have committed them. Satan, in the end, had to be invoked.

If you’ve been to China, you know there are over 100 cities in China, and the pollution levels are just horrific – 60,000 people a year die in Chinese factories and facilities because they don’t have any safety regulations. It’s a carnage; it’s Dickensian.

Life is absolutely horrific, leading up to absolute horror.

If the universalists are correct in saying that everyone is going to be in heaven regardless of what they believe, or the pluralists are correct that all religions lead to the same god, then the horrific death of Jesus Christ was completely unnecessary.

Love is as simple as the absence of self- given to another. God, when invited, fills the void of any unrequited love; hence loving is how one is drawn closer to God no matter its most horrific repercussions.

I saw my whole life flash before my eyes, boss. It was horrific. I haven’t done anything to regret yet and it’s been way too brief. I at least want a license before I check out, you know?

Richard Gavin is one of the bright new stars in contemporary weird fiction. His richly textured style, deft character portrayal, and powerful horrific conceptions make every one of his tales a pleasure to read.

We’re doing terribly. We’re leaving these unborn children trillions of dollars of debt, which is just horrific. We’re leaving nuclear weapons – enough to end life as we know it – all over the planet. We’re leaving a legacy of violence and killing and guns.

I was a high school senior and home alone one night with my younger brother. And a guy – gunman – kicked in our front door at our home in New Jersey and held the two of us captive. We escaped. He caught us again. We escaped again. So, a pretty horrific experience.

Let all those in government be warned: They cannot order people to pay for the murder of babies, and betray God Himself, without horrific consequences.

No wonder we cannot appreciate the really central Kafka joke: that the horrific struggle to establish a human self results in a self whose humanity is inseparable from the horrific struggle. That our endless and impossible journey toward home is in fact our home.

Borderlands’ is a horrific failure if our goal is to entertain the world.

Pain is part of the past. There isn’t one of us who doesn’t still carry childhood wounds. Some are more horrific than others, but no matter how painful your young memories are, there were also glorious moments that kept you alive, or you would not be here today.

Even if Donald Trump had lost the 2016 election, instead of won it in a surprise, the media‘s coverage of his campaign and supporters would have been a horrific failure. They presented that race as unwinnable for Trump and as if his support was inexplicable.

As horrific as this impact has been on my constituents, it is only a small part of the overwhelming destruction covering 90,000 square miles of the Gulf Coast.

The politics is broken up and down. And Trump may emerge from a reality TV world that is much more powerful than we think. And there is the prospect that this is where we are, which is an horrific thought.

I was told to have an ice bath once, which I did once, and it was the most horrific experience. In my head it sounded like a great idea, so I filled my bath with ice and water, and it was absolutely horrendous.

We are getting used to levels of violence, we are getting used to seeing these horrific things going on all the time. I think it’s tough. It’s rough.

The PGA Tour has a lot of interaction with our military, and I’ve grown to have an incredible respect for our troops who are coming home with these horrific injuries, as well as any organization that can not only help them get healed up, but help them get integrated back into society.

Does the global Left – as well as the Israeli Left – truly not care about the horrific Taliban regime, the terrible oppression of women in Gulf states, and the mass hanging festivals in Iran?

I’m definitely drawn to stories of just regular folks, just generally in some kind of horrific situation.

Then I always end up in an oil rig with four hundred guys or on a mountain with guys shooting at each other.

So many women have experienced horrific forms of male violence throughout their lives, and why isn’t there a song about how you get depressed because of it?

Ebola is a horrific disease.

The problem I’ve got is that I really, really like drugs. I love everything about them. It is horrific being sober all the time-utterly awful.

I think a nuclear detonation is society-altering in ways that other attacks, even as horrific as 9/11, are not. This isn’t because we have power-hungry political leaders, but I think it might be demanded by the people themselves out of fear.

I wouldn’t write about people who are living and who are close to me, because I think it’s a very violent thing to do to another person. And anytime I have done it, even in the disguise of fiction, the results have been horrific.

Broadchurch’ is shot through with the fear of being a parent: what’s the most horrific loss you can imagine and how could you go on living afterwards?

The possibility that terrorist groups could obtain weapons of mass destruction should not be dismissed as a fiction. This is a horrific threat the international community should take seriously. As long as these weapons exist, so, too, does the risk of their use – by accident or design.

Pornography, it seems to me, is no different from war films or propaganda films in that it tries to make the visceral, horrific, or transgressive elements of life consumable.

Anybody who knows about having a premature baby, it’s horrific. He was part of a twin, and I lost his sister.

You spend so much of your life crafting this stuff that you want to laugh in the room. I don’t want to sit there and slit my wrists. And I think it reflects reality. People use humor to survive, even in the most horrific situations.

It’s a conversation that nobody really likes to have, and it seems that we never can get to a solution with it and something horrific happens. We all stand back and say, “How could we let that happen?” and then it goes away and we move on.

Sometimes the most difficult, horrific things can be the greatest spiritual teachers.

Part of the problem of being labeled a model minority is that everyone thinks you’ve made it, but that’s far from the case. You can see that in the horrific stories where undocumented workers are trying to get into the country. That’s the backlash.

[Dennis] Etchison would write stories that were just punch lines at the end. You wouldn’t realize something horrific was happening until the last paragraph.

No one is suggesting that [violent video games are] the only reason they went out and committed those horrific acts, but was it a tipping point? Was it something that pushed them over the edge? Was it a factor in that? Perhaps. That’s a really big deal.

School was horrific for me, constantly an outcast for being a geek.

There are some things for which there is no apology, and on the question of slavery, there is no adequate apology for ripping people out of their homeland and bringing them here in chains. There is no adequate apology for the ongoing horrific legacy of racism.

The Lighthouse‘ couldn’t have been made without this kind of freedom that is allowed to some filmmakers to be able to play around with genre. Jennifer Kent‘s ‘Nightingale’ is more horrific than any horror movie – but also, I don’t think you could make that movie without this kind of freedom.

‘The Reader’ is about a young man‘s experience of falling in love with somebody who, it turns out, made some choices that were unavoidable in her life that resulted in horrific crimes against humanity.

I’m not interested in gothic storytelling or the horrific for its own sake. I’m always interested in it as a way of getting at larger ideas or important meaning. And you don’t see that as much as you’d think in the history of horror cinema. A lot of times, it’s scariness for scariness’ own sake.

I am not only the person who wrote and sold a novel while raising a houseful of biological and foster children; I am also the person who wrote a horrific young adult novel that never sold and gave up on a foster child I couldn’t handle – an experience that still haunts me.

We must not allow the horrific actions of madmen to cut us off from our humanity.

It’s hell with that big beard and stuff. That’s the one bit I don’t like. Either you take out at lunch or you don’t eat. So I opted not to eat, ’cause having to put it on twice is horrific.

The day I saw my mom eating the Santa cookies on the plate was one of the most horrific days of my life.

A speech from Ernest Bevin on a major occasion had all the horrific fascination of a public execution. If the mind was left immune, eyes and ears and emotions were riveted.

You get to decide how you’re going to look and what you’re going to be when you grow up and when people learned that my parents actually had an arranged marriage people thought that was the most horrific thing on earth.

I did a lot of research on what solitary confinement does to you, how you become acclimated to being surrounded by people again after being by yourself for such a long time.

Even now, for women to be contemplating the act of ending their life is considered horrific because they are the giver of life. They’re seen in a patriarchal society as the one who offers life and has to nurture a child and have a child within them. That’s your only role.

John and I weren’t capable of getting back to Kenwood from there, so the four of us sat up for the rest of the night as the walls moved, the plants talked, other people looked like ghouls and time stood still. It was horrific: I hated the lack of control and not knowing what was going on or what would happen next.

I think the core of Jaime Lannister is actually that final line in the pilot when he says, ‘The things I do for love.’ He might do horrible things – and they are truly, some of them, horrific. There’s no excuses. But he does it out of what he sees as a necessity, out of love.

There are places in the world that the power goes out in hospitals, and there isn’t clean water, and it’s horrific.
