Famous quotes containing the words pressure and/or groups:

    “We believe that civilization has been created under the pressure of the exigencies of life at the cost of satisfaction of the instincts.”
    —Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)

    “In America every woman has her set of girl-friends; some are cousins, the rest are gained at school. These form a permanent committee who sit on each other’s affairs, who “come out” together, marry and divorce together, and who end as those groups of bustling, heartless well-informed club-women who govern society. Against them the Couple of Ehepaar is helpless and Man in their eyes but a biological interlude.”
    —Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
