Reported Pressure

Famous quotes containing the words reported and/or pressure:

“It was reported their singing resembled
the flight of moths in moonlight.
Who can say? It is silent now.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

“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)
