Contempt – Zitate

The spirit of contempt is the true spirit of Antichrist; for no other is more directly opposed to Christ.

— Henry Giles

Christ saw much in this world to weep over, and much to pray over; but He saw nothing in it to look upon with contempt.

— E. H. Chapin

There is no room in the universe for the least contempt or pride; but only for a gentle and a reverent heart.

— James Martineau

Nothing is so contemptible as habitual contempt. It is impossible to remain long under its control without being dwarfed by its influence.

— E. L. Magoon

Ah, there is nothing more beautiful than the difference between the thought about sinful creatures which is natural to a holy being, and the thought about sinful creatures which is natural to a self-righteous being. The one is all contempt; the other all pity.

— Alexander Maclaren
