Man is the only animal who causes pain to others with no other object than wanting to do so.
We do ritualistic animal sacrifice. We host orgies on our trampoline, every other Sunday. You didn't get our Twitter feed on that? I'm really sorry! And then, every once in awhile, we run through the city and drain people and drink their blood. It's really very romantic.
You break your neck, and I’ll see it mended just so I can break it again.
An infallible characteristic of meanness is cruelty. Men who have practiced tortures on animals without pity, relating them without shame, how can they still hold their heads among human beings?
Unlike other vices, cruelty, alas, is never boring.
Most well-known serial killers have victims numbering in the dozens, have sent taunting letters to the police or have done bizarre things to the bodies.
I'd call him a sadistic, hippophilic necrophile, but that would be beating a dead horse.
I enjoy crushing bastards. So it is enjoyable work.
Amongst all other vices there is none I hate more than cruelty, both by nature and judgment, as the extremest of all vices.
It's really shocking to see what the military can do, strip you of any personality, turn you into an aggressive, sociopathic sadist before even going into a battlefield.

My kid wants to be a prison warden when he grows up so he can put thumb tacks on the electric chairs.
Some of my unhappiest moments have been in organizations. Somehow it seems to be quite respectable to do things in organizations that you would never do in private life. I have had people insult me to my face in front of colleagues. I have had my feelings rammed down my throat on the pretext that it would do me good. I have been required to do things which I didn't agree with because the organization wished it... In my worst moments I have thought organizations were places designed to be run by sadists and staffed by masochists.
Killing a baby seal is about the easiest thing you can do if you're inclined to be sadistic; you certainly can't say there's any sport in it - the animal is totally defenceless.
what a horrible loutish planet this is. the dominant species consists of sadistic morons, faces bearing the hideous lineaments of spiritual famine swollen with stupid hate. hopeless rubbish.
Chickenshit refers to behavior that makes military life worse than it need be: petty harassment of the weak by the strong; open scrimmage for power and authority and prestige; sadism thinly disguised as necessary discipline; a constant 'paying off of old scores'; and insistence on the letter rather than the spirit of ordinances.
My name is Patrick Fitzgerald ... I like to tear the tops off small animals.
We are our own wicked gods with little 'g's' and big dicks, sadistic and constantly inflicting a slow demise.
… sadistic, blatant and wanton criminal acts
The question we should be asking is not why people are sometimes cruel, or even why a few people are usually cruel (all evidence suggests true sadists are an extremely small proportion of the population overall), but how we have come to create institutions that encourage such behavior and that suggest cruel people are in some ways admirable-or at least as deserving of sympathy as those they push around.
He reminded me of someone who put your fingers in the door and smiled and talked to you while he smashed them.
I want to make her cry and then lick up the tears.
You were doing a sadistic little disservice to your country.
I became Iggy because I had a sadistic boss at a record store. I'd been in a band called the Iguanas. And when this boss wanted to embarrass and demean me, he'd say, 'Iggy, get me a coffee, light.'
There is something about the state putting the power to bully into the hands of subnormal, sadistic apes that makes my blood boil.
