Quotations for intolerable

Itch is more intolerable than smart. [ Proverb ]

Great deservers grow intolerable presumers. [ English Proverb, collected by George Herbert ]

No evil is intolerable but a guilty conscience. [ Channing ]

To have all one's wants satisfied is something intolerable. [ Arthur Schopenhauer ]

Natural folly is bad enough, but learned folly is intolerable. [ Proverb ]

There cannot be a more intolerable thing than a fortunate fool. [ Proverb ]

The poverty which oppresses a great people is a grievous and intolerable evil.

I think half the troubles for which men go slouching in prayer to God are caused by their intolerable pride. Many of our cares are but a morbid way of looking at our privileges. We let our blessings get mouldy, and then call them curses. [ Beecher ]

Style is the physiognomy of the mind. It is more infallible than that of the body. To imitate the style of another is said to be wearing a mask. However beautiful it may be, it is through its lifelessness insipid and intolerable, so that even the most ugly living face is more engaging. [ Schopenhauer ]

In former days various superstitious rites were used to exorcise evil spirits, but in our times the same object is attained, and beyond comparison more effectually, by the press; before this talisman, ghosts, vampires, witches, and all their kindred tribes are driven from the land, never to return again; the touch of holy water is not so intolerable to them as the smell of printing ink. [ J. Bentham ]
