Higher Pressure

Famous quotes containing the words higher and/or pressure:

“The higher processes are all processes of simplification. The novelist must learn to write, and then he must unlearn it; just as the modern painter learns to draw, and then learns when utterly to disregard his accomplishment, when to subordinate it to a higher and truer effect.”
—Willa Cather (1873–1947)

“We believe that civilization has been created under the pressure of the exigencies of life at the cost of satisfaction of the instincts.”
