I dread handshakes. I've got some problems with my HANDS, and everywhere I go, people want to IMPRESS me with their grip. To MAKE it worse, now women are coming up with that FIRM shake.

So many PEOPLE DREAD THANKSGIVING because they find it TRAUMATIC or uncomfortable. My suggestion is to come with a couple of great QUESTIONS for the table.

The terrorist threat is so cloudy, faceless, and vague, so manipulable by political PURPOSES, so definitely PRESENT but indefinitely manifested, that it SOMETIMES feels interchangeable with everyday DREAD itself.

It's the idea that ANTICIPATION is as scary as anything in a movie could be. People's IMAGINATION is the most EFFECTIVE TOOL in creating terror or DREAD.

The law serves of nought else in these days but for to do wrong, for NOTHING is SPREAD almost but false matters by color of the law for reward, DREAD and favor and so no remedy is had in the COURT of Equity in any way.

I've come, even as a feminist, to DREAD the phrase 'female FRIENDSHIP,' because it TENDS to signal overdetermined RELATIONSHIPS.

You KNOW too well the FORCES which compose their army to DREAD their superior NUMBERS.

There are so few PEOPLE that wake up every DAY and GO do SOMETHING that they don't dread... I'm very lucky.

I FIND I have to touch what I am working on every DAY, or a deep-seated DREAD kicks in that is very HARD to overcome.

I feel LIKE it's my responsibility not to leave the listener in a POOL of DREAD.

When you do a play, you have the kind of nightly feeling of accomplishment. But you ALSO have the daily dread of the doing it EVERY night. And because you're doing the WHOLE thing every DAY, it's like climbing up the MOUNTAIN every single night. With a movie it's like climbing the mountain very slowly, over months of filming.

Actors dread working with STUDIOS because they DICTATE what you do in a WAY that INDEPENDENT MOVIES can't.

My DREAD is for my show to be a NOSTALGIA act. So the KEY to it is how do we KEEP it fresh?
