Quotation from: The War of the Worlds

Written by: H. G. Wells


Most of the spectators had gathered in one or two groups--one a
little crowd towards Woking, the other a knot of people in the
direction of Chobham. Evidently they shared my mental conflict.
There were few near me. One man I approached--he was, I perceived,
a neighbour of mine, though I did not know his name--and accosted.
But it was scarcely a time for articulate conversation.


"What ugly _brutes_!" he said. "Good God! What ugly brutes!" He
repeated this over and over again.
