Pressure Wave

Famous quotes containing the words pressure and/or wave:

“By school age, many boys experience pressure to reveal inner feelings as humiliating. They think their mothers are saying to them, “You must be hiding something shameful.” And shucking clams is a snap compared to prying secrets out of a boy who’s decided to “clam up.””
—Ron Taffel (20th century)

“Down the blue night the unending columns press
In noiseless tumult, break and wave and flow,”
