Higher Arterial Pressure

Famous quotes containing the words higher and/or pressure:

    Every man wants a woman to appeal to his better side, his nobler instincts and his higher nature—and another woman to help him forget them.
    Helen Rowland (1875–1950)

    Today’s pressures on middle-class children to grow up fast begin in early childhood. Chief among them is the pressure for early intellectual attainment, deriving from a changed perception of precocity. Several decades ago precocity was looked upon with great suspicion. The child prodigy, it was thought, turned out to be a neurotic adult; thus the phrase “early ripe, early rot!”
    David Elkind (20th century)
