Disease Pressure

Famous quotes containing the words disease and/or pressure:

    His poor self,
    A dedicated beggar to the air,
    With his disease of all-shunned poverty,
    Walks, like contempt, alone.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The area [of toilet training] is one where a child really does possess the power to defy. Strong pressure leads to a powerful struggle. The issue then is not toilet training but who holds the reins—mother or child? And the child has most of the ammunition!
    Dorothy Corkville Briggs (20th century)
