Lauren GrodsteinTo be under pressure is inescapable. Pressure takes place through all the world; war, siege, the worries of state. We all know men who grumble under these pressures and complain.

It is the pressure which refines and makes him noble

John von NeumannIn raising the price of commodities, the rise of wages operates in the same manner as simple interest does in the accumulation of debt.

Paul FeigSee if you can catch yourself complaining in either speech or thought, about a situation you find yourself in, what other people do or say, your surroundings, your life situation, even the weather.

All else is madness.

Samantha HuntJust because you can watch half-nude women on afternoon television or gay men kissing on the streets of nearly any major city does not mean America is free, as complacent liberals might think, much less too free, as conservatives often suggest.

Jack CanfieldWhen people complain of the decay of manners they have in mind not the impudent abbreviations of the crowd, but the decline in bowing and scraping and in speaking of one's employer as "the master."
