Situation

Famous quotes containing the word situation:

    “Our chaotic economic situation has convinced so many of our young people that there is no room for them. They become uncertain and restless and morbid; they grab at false promises, embrace false gods and judge things by treacherous values. Their insecurity makes them believe that tomorrow doesn’t matter and the ineffectualness of their lives makes them deny the ideals which we of an older generation acknowledged.”
    —Hortense Odlum (1892–?)

    “The abjection of our political situation is the only true challenge today. Only facing up to this situation in all its desperation can help us get out of it.”
    —Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    “There are situations in life to which the only satisfactory response is a physically violent one. If you don’t make that response, you continually relive the unresolved situation over and over in your life.”
    —Russell Hoban (b. 1925)
