Impulse Radar

Famous quotes containing the words impulse and/or radar:

    Grant us a brief delay; impulse in everything
    Is but a worthless minister.
    Publius Papinius Statius (c. 40–96)

    So I begin to understand why my mother’s radar is so sensitive to criticism. She still treads the well-worn ruts of her youth, when her impression of mother was of a woman hard to please, frequently negative, and rarely satisfied with anyone—least of all herself.
    Melinda M. Marshall (20th century)
