Constrained

Famous quotes containing the word constrained:

“An expansive life, one not constrained by four walls, requires as well an expansive pocket.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

“What a hell of an economic system! Some are replete with everything while others, whose stomachs are no less demanding, whose hunger is just as recurrent, have nothing to bite on. The worst of it is the constrained posture need puts you in. The needy man does not walk like the rest; he skips, slithers, twists, crawls.”
—Denis Diderot (1713–1784)
