How to use ugly in a sentence?

H. G. Wells:

There is nothing in machinery, there is nothing in embankments and railways and iron bridges and engineering devices to oblige them to be ugly. Ugliness is the measure of imperfection.
Gregory Cheadle:

I pretty much went into hiding, i didn’t want to really be in public because it was too ugly. This is gun country up here. People don’t play.
Yvonne De Carlo:

I ’d wanted a TV series, but this ? I was n’t sure. I had a hard time getting into the rhythm of it. Then director Joe Pevney suggested I play Lily Munster as a sort of mixed-up Donna Reed character and not overdo anything. When I saw the first pilot in a screening room I cringed at my makeup. But I never estimated it would become this cult thing. It took two hours of makeup to make me seem like that. It ran for two huge seasons, then CBS quarreled with the creators about reruns as we got canceled. A movie in color in 1966 [ ‘ Munster, Go Home ! ’ ] showed off everything in reds and greens on my face. Boy, was I ugly.
Hermann Hesse, Siddhartha:

Opinions mean nothing; they may be beautiful or ugly, clever or foolish, anyone can embrace or reject them.
Simone Weil:

A beautiful woman looking at her image in the mirror may very well believe the image is herself. An ugly woman knows it is not.”
