Ugly Thoughts Quotes

“If you fill your mind with a beautiful thought, there will be no room in it for an ugly one. - King Amor”
― Frances Hodgson Burnett, The Land of the Blue Flower

“The past is an annoying critic whose loud tirade of accusatory declamations detracts me from experiencing happiness. Loitering within the craggy shadows of my lithograph identification apparatus is the splayed viscera from the blood-soaked entrails of an egotistical self’s riddled history. The unbidden past tugs at my sleeves similar to a persistent tramp demanding an attentive accounting. A disgraced personal self refuses to release its despotic hold upon my guilt-ridden psyche without exacting a sacrificial tithing. Strewn wreckage from my history of scandalous debacles cast a pall of shame over the present. The shambles of my disreputable past stifles my present desire to celebrate in the rudimentary grandeur of living robustly. With the past snarling its reproach, my mind is preoccupied with ugly thoughts, and every day reduced to a tiresome and worrisome filled existence that halts my progress towards achieving an envisaged life.”
― Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls

“Claude was a sensitive soul; I couldn't say what I thought to him.

My thoughts were spiky with barbs of ugliness. I recognized the darkness in them but could say nothing about it to any of my family members.”
― Maddy Kobar, From Out of Feldspar
