“In London - and forget those extra public pressures on politicians - the lovely old Sloane world of manor houses simply hasn't cut it since Big Bang in 1986, the point at which Mrs. Thatcher really started to achieve her ambition to make this country more like America - its ambition, economy, it's very tangible measures of success.” WorldCountryBigsAmericaHouseForgetEconomyCuttingAchievePoliticianAmbitionPressureLondonLovelyExtrasBangsTangibleMeasure Of SuccessMrs Thatcher Author:Peter York
“To be a superstar is incredible pressure. And also in our country, I'm going to speak about this, America. We have a way of kind of making it hard on our superstars.

“We thank those Senators, both Republican and Democrat, who stood firm against tremendous pressure from the Bush administration, pro-drilling members of Congress and their allies in the oil industry. They recognize that the budget is an inappropriate place to decide controversial national policy matters like America's energy policy. We urge all members of Congress to remain steadfast in their belief that the vast, unspoiled wilderness of America?s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is more than a line item in the Federal Budget.” MatterAmericaBeliefEnergyLinesPolicyIndustryRepublicanMembersPressureDemocratCongressOilAdministrationBudgetsFirmUrgesWildernessAlliesRefugeSenatorsItemsWildlifeControversialInappropriateSteadfastArcticDrillingEnergy PolicyOil Industry Author:Carl Pope
“One of the reasons I believe the spiritual door was opened for an attack against the United States of America is that the policy of our Government has been to ask the Israelis, and demand it with pressure, not to retaliate in a significant way against the terrorist strikes that have been launched against them.” WayBelieveHas BeensStatesReasonGovernmentAmericaSpiritualAsksI BelieveUnitedUnited StatesDoorsPolicyDemandPressureStrikesTerroristSignificantUnited States Of America Author:James Inhofe
“Freedom in every sense but primarily political sense, a rise in repression that stems from a repression of sexuality. It's AIDS, it's herpes, it's this, it's that.

“In general, I feel, or I have come to feel, that the richest writing comes not from the people who dedicate themselves to writing alone. I know this is contradicted again and again but I continue to feel it. They don't, of course, write as much, or as fast, but I think it is riper and more satisfying when it does come. One of the difficulties of writing or doing any kind of creative work in America seems to me to be that we put such stress on production and material results. We put a time pressure and a mass pressure on creative work which are meaningless and infantile in that field.” PeopleThinkingKnowsFeelsWritingKindDoeSeemsAmericaCoursesResultsCreativeFieldsMaterialsMassDifficultyStressPressureProductionsSatisfyingMeaninglessAgain And AgainCreative WorkInfantileDifficulty Of Writing Author:Anne Morrow Lindbergh
