Evermore in the world is this marvelous balance of beauty and disgust, magnificence and rats.

Rose F. Kennedy
After another moment's silence, she mumbled that I was peculiar, that that was probably why she loved me but that one day I might disgust her for the very same reason.

Words become low by the occasions to which they are applied, or the general character of them who use them; and the disgust which they produce arises from the revival of those images with which they are commonly united.
Samuel Johnson
For the good, when praised, feel something of disgust, if to excess commended.
Euripides
There are people who in spite of their merit disgust us, and others who please us in spite of their faults.
François de la Rochefoucauld
Nothing more strongly arouses our disgust than cannibalism, yet we make the same impression on Buddhists and vegetarians, for we feed on babies, though not our own.
