Reported Pressure

Famous quotes containing the words reported and/or pressure:

“The few who can talk like a book, they only get reported commonly. But this writer reports a new lieferung.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Destiny is an absolutely definite and inexorable ruler. Physical ability and moral determination count for nothing. It is impossible to perform the simplest act when the gods say “no.” I have no idea how they bring pressure to bear on such occasions; I only know that it is irresistible.”
