It doesn't sound anything like 'Under Pressure.' ~ Vanilla Ice
Under Pressure quotes by Vanilla Ice
He liked the English and their peculiarities. He liked their stoicism under pressure; on the wall in his factory he kept a copy of a war poster emblazoned with the Crown of King George and underneath the words Keep Calm and Carry On. ~ Natasha Solomons
Under Pressure quotes by Natasha Solomons
GREAT THINGS sometimes come from rewriting under pressure. ~ Lynn Hunt
Under Pressure quotes by Lynn Hunt
I have this reporter's temperament still in me - I thrive under pressure. ~ David Lagercrantz
Under Pressure quotes by David Lagercrantz
No subject is terrible if the story is true, if the prose is clean and honest, and if it affirms courage and grace under pressure. ~ Ernest Hemingway,
Under Pressure quotes by Ernest Hemingway,
When you see people who are really good at game shows, the one common attribute is a cool head under pressure: an ability to perform as well in the studio, surrounded by lights and noise, as you do on your couch. ~ Ken Jennings
Under Pressure quotes by Ken Jennings
But we need to realize that there are deeper harvests that happen even when we don't meet with much outward success. We will find our own character changing deeply through ministry. Our consciences will be clear and our hearts happier, since we're less self-indulgent. We'll develop a less selfish and more satisfied character, which will serve us well when we are under pressure. We may not reap quickly, and we may not see all that we reap; but we can know that there is a great harvest for those who sow to please the Spirit. ~ Timothy Keller
Under Pressure quotes by Timothy Keller
Maybe its not necessarily a dead-end job; maybe more along the lines of a rear-end one. ~ Johnnie Dent Jr.
Under Pressure quotes by Johnnie Dent Jr.
Insanity laughs under pressure we're cracking
Can't we give ourselves one more chance
Why can't we give love that one more chance
Why can't we give love
Cause love's such an old fashioned word
and love dares you to care for
The people on the edge of the night
And love dares you to change our way of
Caring about ourselves
This is our last dance
This is our last dance
This is ourselves
Under pressure ~ Queen Elizabeth II
Under Pressure quotes by Queen Elizabeth II
Diamonds are made under pressure - Lilly Parker ~ L.P. Lovell
Under Pressure quotes by L.P. Lovell
When one is under pressure, one may lie in order to protect the religion, this is taught in the Qur'an. ~ Robert Spencer
Under Pressure quotes by Robert Spencer
In order to write a memoir, I've sat still inside the swirling vortex of my own complicated history like a piece of old driftwood, battered by the sea. I've waited - sometimes patiently, sometimes in despair - for the story under pressure of concealment to reveal itself to me. I've been doing this work long enough to know that our feelings - that vast range of fear, joy, grief, sorrow, rage, you name it - are incoherent in the immediacy of the moment. It is only with distance that we are able to turn our powers of observation on ourselves, thus fashioning stories in which we are characters ~ Dani Shapiro
Under Pressure quotes by Dani Shapiro
I'd have to kill Dimitri for real this time and lose any chance I might have to bring back my prince. Damn. It's a good thing I work well under pressure. ~ Richelle Mead
Under Pressure quotes by Richelle Mead
Always behave like a duck- keep calm and unruffled on the surface, but paddle like the devil underneath. ~ Jacob M. Braude
Under Pressure quotes by Jacob M. Braude
You can measure a man's character by the choices he makes under pressure. ~ Winston Churchill
Under Pressure quotes by Winston Churchill
Survival is as much a matter of grace as fight. The expression, 'grace under pressure' implies the attainment of equanimity and equilibrium. The fundamental durability of the human body surprises us because the pain can be so intense - yet pain is often transient and hides the tremendous effforts the body is engaged in to heal itself. ~ Gretel Ehrlich
Under Pressure quotes by Gretel Ehrlich
Painting done under pressure by artists without the necessary talent can only give rise to formlessness, as painting is a profession that requires peace of mind. ~ Titian
Under Pressure quotes by Titian
Several of the first presidents, including Jefferson and Madison, generally refused to issue public prayers, despite importunings to do so. Under pressure, Madison relented in the War Of 1812, but held to his belief that chaplains shouldn't be appointed to the military or be allowed to open Congress. ~ James Madison
Under Pressure quotes by James Madison
I suppose I tend to like slightly darker things - people have levelled that on me before and I accept that because in my opinion, if I mention the best movies or the best books, there's always something that's involving slightly darker element of out psyche. I like seeing people under pressure. I like seeing what happens to people when they're under pressure. ~ Cillian Murphy
Under Pressure quotes by Cillian Murphy
From journalism I learned to write under pressure, to work with deadlines, to have limited space and time, to conduct and interview, to find information, to research, and above all, to use language as efficiently as possible and to remember always that there is a reader out there. ~ Isabel Allende
Under Pressure quotes by Isabel Allende
I don't feel under pressure to work because I love what I do and I wanted to do the projects that came my way. ~ Olivia Williams
Under Pressure quotes by Olivia Williams
The equipment and weaponry will continually change and improve, and the size of the military will expand as needed, decreasing during times of peace. But the unyielding will of the soldier and the dedication of professional military leaders will not change. Our soldiers can do a great deal more under pressure than people think. You'd have to see them perform in combat to believe it. ~ George W. Dunaway
Under Pressure quotes by George W. Dunaway
I deal with pressure. I have a tendency to probably be at my best under pressure. ~ Kevin Costner
Under Pressure quotes by Kevin Costner
If I'm playing a gig in London, it feels so important. The adrenaline rush here is bigger than anywhere else. I kind of like the pressure that London puts you under. ~ Laura Mvula
Under Pressure quotes by Laura Mvula
Your powers are great, you can do everything.
If your life bring you a trouble
that's just to get the best out of you,
Shade exists only because the sun shines
Diamond is created just under pressure
Slobodan Boban Manic ~ Slobodan Boban Manic
Under Pressure quotes by Slobodan Boban Manic
We might not make the best decisions under pressure, but you can't make a decision at all when you're not talking about it. ~ Penelope Douglas
Under Pressure quotes by Penelope Douglas
I always practise penalties, but what people don't understand is that you can never recreate that pressure situation that you're under. ~ Alan Shearer
Under Pressure quotes by Alan Shearer
All over the world, as governments retreat from their traditional duty to foster the common good and reconceive of themselves as mere managers of national economies, universities have been coming under pressure to turn themselves into training schools equipping young people with the skills required by a modern economy, ~ J.M. Coetzee
Under Pressure quotes by J.M. Coetzee
They all have excellent resumes ... So what I'm trying to find out is how they will behave under pressure. ~ Hyman G. Rickover
Under Pressure quotes by Hyman G. Rickover
When we long for life without difficulty,
remind us that oaks grow strong under contrary winds
and diamonds are made under pressure. ~ Peter Marshall
Under Pressure quotes by Peter Marshall
I think by the time I left Egypt, there was about like 400 accusations against me in the drawer of the public persecutor office. It's a way for them to exhaust you, to push you, to put you under pressure, to distract you. ~ Bassem Youssef
Under Pressure quotes by Bassem Youssef
I'm used to being under pressure ... luckily I perform well under pressure. ~ Paige VanZant
Under Pressure quotes by Paige VanZant
Maybe it's because spiritual growth and vibrant faith in God don't happen in isolation, but under pressure. ~ Lynn Austin
Under Pressure quotes by Lynn Austin
The ability to manage your emotions and remain calm under pressure has a direct link to your performance. ~ Travis Bradberry
Under Pressure quotes by Travis Bradberry
Large Professor, none greater none fresher,
Won't fold under pressure ... grew up down the road from Fran Drescher. ~ Extra P
Under Pressure quotes by Extra P
When rain and tears are making a trip together, emotions can be coming under pressure. But the fluid bond between the power of nature and the frailty of the soul may also smash the weight of the burden and create a liberating mental flow opening new insights. ("Rainman") ~ Erik Pevernagie
Under Pressure quotes by Erik Pevernagie
The truth is that throughout my careers in both chess and the martial arts, I often knew that my rivals were more naturally gifted than me - either with their mental machines or their bodies. But I have believed in my training, my approach to learning, and my ability to rise to the challenge under pressure. ~ Joshua Waitzkin
Under Pressure quotes by Joshua Waitzkin
I think it is very important that I should have a talk with you as soon as possible on a highly secret matter. I mentioned it to you shortly after you took office but have not urged it since on account of the pressure you have been under. ~ Henry L. Stimson
Under Pressure quotes by Henry L. Stimson
It is precisely the presence and help of Christ in times of suffering that makes it possible for us to stand up under pressure. ~ R.C. Sproul
Under Pressure quotes by R.C. Sproul
I think people can learn from my experience - you know, any young people who are under pressure, whether you work on Wall Street or you work in a factory in Alabama, and young journalists. ~ Jayson Blair
Under Pressure quotes by Jayson Blair
As a kid, I used to see how Sachin Tendulkar used to win matches under pressure for India in Sharjah or other places. So I was always keen to repeat the same in similar situations. I don't take pressure on myself when I am in the middle. I love pressure, and I always believe that pressure makes you more focused. ~ Virat Kohli
Under Pressure quotes by Virat Kohli
Instincts under pressure crush the carbon of conformity and create diamonds. ~ T.D. Jakes
Under Pressure quotes by T.D. Jakes
Under pressure, a team will consciously or unconsciously begin to be more conservative in what they take on. They will begin rating things as a bit larger or a bit harder than they used to. This will give the impression that they're going faster, but they are not. ~ Anonymous
Under Pressure quotes by Anonymous
You never really know yourself until you see yourself under pressure. ~ Joyce Meyer
Under Pressure quotes by Joyce Meyer
In real life, as it is in fiction, character is both formed and revealed when we are tested. When we are forced to make decisions under pressure, that test can either make us stronger or it can highlight our weaknesses and crack us into pieces. ~ Bryan Cranston
Under Pressure quotes by Bryan Cranston
Recall that epic heroes were judged by their actions, not by the results. No matter how sophisticated our choices, how good we are at dominating the odds, randomness will have the last word. We are left only with dignity as a solution - dignity defined as the execution of a protocol of behavior that does not depend on the immediate circumstance. It may not be the optimal one, but it certainly is the one that makes us feel best. Grace under pressure, for example. Or in deciding not to toady up to someone, whatever ~ Nassim Nicholas Taleb
Under Pressure quotes by Nassim Nicholas Taleb
The interesting thing is that everyone in golf is just nice. You learn a lot about people playing golf: their integrity, how they play under pressure. ~ Donald Trump
Under Pressure quotes by Donald Trump
I was a war correspondent. I've watched great people crumble under pressure and make bad decisions. ~ Peter Landesman
Under Pressure quotes by Peter Landesman
A terrorist network that believes a nation so tested will fold under pressure of a few horrific acts may capture its attention, but will not achieve its submission. ~ Virginia Foxx
Under Pressure quotes by Virginia Foxx
You want to come home from a tournament with a winner's medal. That's not the fans or the media putting us under pressure, that's the pressure we put ourselves under. ~ Rio Ferdinand
Under Pressure quotes by Rio Ferdinand
When you cook under pressure you trade perfection. ~ Gordon Ramsay
Under Pressure quotes by Gordon Ramsay
By "guts" I mean, grace under pressure ~ Ernest Hemingway,
Under Pressure quotes by Ernest Hemingway,
It was another example of a phenomenon I call "the talking dog syndrome." Some people are still amazed that any woman (this includes Governors' wives, corporate CEOs, sports stars and rock singers) can hold her own under pressure and be articulate and knowledgeable. The dog can talk! ~ Hillary Rodham Clinton
Under Pressure quotes by Hillary Rodham Clinton
It's like a cast of actors; you're all working together closely under pressure to produce something everyday. And when we put up an issue, it's like the curtains opening on a new play. I really like that daily sense of surprise. ~ David Talbot
Under Pressure quotes by David Talbot
I felt that let's understand that all these people are just human, even the advisors in the White House, they're just real people trying to make real decisions and they make mistakes like anybody else does under pressure. If you can get that with these great performances then you claim it on that level as well. ~ Gerard Butler
Under Pressure quotes by Gerard Butler
Bad things happen, but really bad things do not. Do buy the dips, especially the lowest quality securities when they come under pressure, because declines will quickly be reversed. ~ Seth Klarman
Under Pressure quotes by Seth Klarman
I learned about machinery, I learned how men behaved under pressure, and I learned about Americans. ~ Herman Wouk
Under Pressure quotes by Herman Wouk
And you're okay with this? ... " I studied his calm expression, my own features anything but calm.
"Noooo ... " Aeron drew the word out lazily with a slow, deliberate shake of his head. His face remained strangely composed.
"Then can I please have some of whatever sedative you took ... because this," I waved my hand, motioning from his head to his feet, "is way too cool under pressure. ~ M.A. George
Under Pressure quotes by M.A. George
As man under pressure tends to give in to physical and intellectual weakness, only great strength of will can lead to the objective. ~ Carl Von Clausewitz
Under Pressure quotes by Carl Von Clausewitz
Sometimes you surprise yourself with what you can handle, and if you come out the other end with some wisdom, then it's not such a bad thing. ~ Boy George
Under Pressure quotes by Boy George
I am a pretty emotional person. Any act of kindness or unkindness moves me. When I see a romantic couple sitting by the beach, it moves me. I don't break down or crack under pressure, but I am just sensitive. ~ Nimrat Kaur
Under Pressure quotes by Nimrat Kaur
The instability of a white neighborhood under pressure from the very possibility of integration put the neighborhood into a kind of real estate purgatory. It set off a downward cycle of anticipation, in which worried whites no longer bought homes in white neighborhoods that might one day attract colored residents even if none lived there at the time. Rents and purchase prices were dropped "in a futile attempt to attract white residents," as Hirsch put it. With prices falling and the neighborhood's future uncertain, lenders refused to grant mortgages or made them more difficult to obtain. Panicked whites sold at low prices to salvage what equity they had left, giving the homeowners who remained little incentive to invest any further to keep up or improve their properties. ~ Isabel Wilkerson
Under Pressure quotes by Isabel Wilkerson
I have, actually. I'm under pressure, but I'm also observing myself under pressure from the standpoint of an onlooker.

Once I create this other self within my mind I can proceed calmly, at my own pace. ~ Yumi Hotta
Under Pressure quotes by Yumi Hotta
In the end, this is a difficult story to sum up. The making of the atomic bomb is one of history's most amazing examples of teamwork and genius and poise under pressure. But it's also the story of how humans created a weapon capable of wiping our species off the planet. It's a story with no end in sight.
And, like it or not, you're in it. ~ Steve Sheinkin
Under Pressure quotes by Steve Sheinkin
Mental Management is the process of maximising the probability of having a consistent mental performance, under pressure, on demand ~ Lanny Bassham
Under Pressure quotes by Lanny Bassham
Courage is grace under pressure. ~ Ernest Hemingway,
Under Pressure quotes by Ernest Hemingway,
We all come under pressure from our employers, family or friends to compromise, but to make something unique, to do something extraordinary, often requires that you refuse to compromise your ideals. You have no responsibility to live up to others' expectations, but you do have a responsibility to live up to your own expectations. ~ Rod Judkins
Under Pressure quotes by Rod Judkins
Offbeat questions are nearly impossible to prepare for, and they don't achieve the interviewer's objective - to test out-of-the-box thinking and the ability to perform under pressure. That's the bad news. The good news is that companies are moving away from them. ~ Travis Bradberry
Under Pressure quotes by Travis Bradberry
I work really well under pressure but I really hate doing things on a timeframe. ~ Beth Ditto
Under Pressure quotes by Beth Ditto
Top-up fees mean that universities are increasingly under pressure to confer degrees upon students, who perceive the degree as a commodity they've purchased. Failure doesn't enter into anyone's calculations. ~ Sarah Churchwell
Under Pressure quotes by Sarah Churchwell
You don't really know who you are until you have gone through suffering. We can measure our spiritual growth by the way we behave under pressure. ~ Edward T. Welch
Under Pressure quotes by Edward T. Welch
Got an idea to start", "Thinking to start" and "Making a commitment to start" is one aspect of life.
Actually "Starting" what you truly want to do in life, is a completely different ball game. ~ Manoj Arora
Under Pressure quotes by Manoj Arora
Double with me and Gabriel next Friday!" Isabel announced suddenly. "I'll find you a date."

"Pass."

"Come on. It's been a while since you've been on a date."

"That's because I'm awkward and weird and it's not fun at all for me or the poor soul who agrees to go out with me."

"That's not true."

I crossed my arms.

"You just need to go out more than once … or twice … with someone so they see how fun you are," Isabel argued, adjusting her backpack straps. "You're not awkward withme."

"I'm totally awkward with you but you're not under pressure to eventually kiss me, so you put up with it. ~ Kasie West
Under Pressure quotes by Kasie West
It is always what is under pressure in us, especially under pressure of concealment
that explodes in poetry. ~ Adrienne Rich
Under Pressure quotes by Adrienne Rich
Many people are more like the earth than we know. Maybe they have fault lines that sooner or later are going to split open under pressure. ~ Rebecca Wells
Under Pressure quotes by Rebecca Wells
Our whole family thrives under pressure. It's like our family motto or something.
Apart from my brother Peter, of course. He had a nervous break down. But the rest of us. ~ Sophie Kinsella
Under Pressure quotes by Sophie Kinsella
I don't put myself under pressure. ~ Usain Bolt
Under Pressure quotes by Usain Bolt
Though he never articulated it, I know Tiger believed in the idea of the Package. It went along with the sense of destiny his father had passed to him - that he was put on this earth to do something extraordinary with his special qualities, to "let the legend grow."
But those qualities, foremost among them an extraordinary ability to focus and stay calm under pressure, also included selfishness, obsessiveness, stubbornness, coldness, ruthlessness, pettiness, and cheapness.
When they were all at work in the competitive arena, they helped him win. And winning gave him permission to remain a flawed and in some ways immature person. ~ Hank Haney
Under Pressure quotes by Hank Haney
Under pressure, the mouth speaks when the brain is disengaged, and, sometimes unwittingly, the gearshift is in reverse when it should be in neutral. ~ Henry Ford
Under Pressure quotes by Henry Ford
A man never suffers in defeat. But a weak man folds under pressure, while a real man takes it on the chin. ~ Rob G.
Under Pressure quotes by Rob G.
True love is singing karaoke 'under pressure' and letting the other person sing the Freddie Mercury part. ~ Mindy Kaling
Under Pressure quotes by Mindy Kaling
Ballet has really helped me in every acting role. You have to be very disciplined, you have to be able to control your nerves and perform under pressure, and all those things you have to use in acting when you're on film or going for an audition. ~ Mia Wasikowska
Under Pressure quotes by Mia Wasikowska
And when the pressure was on us, the team handled it very well. One has to learn to play well under pressure. ~ Imran Khan
Under Pressure quotes by Imran Khan
The secret is that everything is always on the line. The more present we are at practice, the more present we will be in competition, in the boardroom, at the exam, the operating table, the big stage. If we have any hope of attaining excellence, let alone of showing what we've got under pressure, we have to be prepared by a lifestyle of reinforcement. Presence must be like breathing. ~ Josh Waitzkin
Under Pressure quotes by Josh Waitzkin
In getting from Windsor to Detroit there is a choice between a free tunnel and a toll bridge, which turned out to be a short ride for a dollar, which I mentioned to the toll-collector who said, 'One of those things,' impelling me to remark to my cousin, 'Almost everything said by people one sees for only an instant is something like poetry. Precise, incisive, and just right, and the reason seems to be that there isn't time to talk prose. This suggests several things, the most important of which is probably that a writer ought not to permit himself to feel that he has all the time in the world in which to write his story or play or novel. He ought to set himself a time-limit, and the shorter the better. And he ought to do a lot of other things while he is working within this time-limit, so that he will always be under pressure, in a hurry, and therefore have neither the inclination nor the time to be fussy, which is the worst thing that happens to a book while it's being written. ~ William, Saroyan
Under Pressure quotes by William, Saroyan
Thatcher came under pressure from right wing backbenchers to shut up the Prince of Wales and there was a deal done between them where he did actually shut up in the end. ~ Anthony Holden
Under Pressure quotes by Anthony Holden
Pressure to me now has become almost part of my life. It doesn't really affect me anymore. People talk about me being under pressure or having pressure of having to come in and be this great player that everyone expects me to be right away. It doesn't really faze me. It's become second nature now. It's almost like it would be weird not to have it. ~ Reggie Bush
Under Pressure quotes by Reggie Bush
Big mistakes are an outstanding opportunity to showcase your ability to recover and have grace under pressure. ~ Bryant McGill
Under Pressure quotes by Bryant McGill
Liverpool can play for only five minutes and win the game, that is the way they are. They pump the ball into the box and with good set-piece delivery they keep you under pressure. ~ Alex Ferguson
Under Pressure quotes by Alex Ferguson
If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris as a young man, then wherever you go for the rest of your life it stays with you, for Paris is a moveable feast. ~ Ernest Hemingway,
Under Pressure quotes by Ernest Hemingway,
It's lacrosse that helped teach me to spin off checks, take shots and protect the puck under pressure. My stick skills, the way to read the play quickly comes from lacrosse. The hand-eye coordination, is just one of the little things that helps you in hockey. ~ John Tavares
Under Pressure quotes by John Tavares
Being an athlete, you know how to train and prepare your body for a performance and you're able to do it under pressure. ~ Kristi Yamaguchi
Under Pressure quotes by Kristi Yamaguchi
I can speak for myself and say that a lot of times you just make mistakes! You're under pressure to get something done in a limited amount of time, and so you just dive in without really knowing what you're getting yourself into. ~ Christopher Tin
Under Pressure quotes by Christopher Tin
Your job is obviously very pressured."
"I thrive under pressure," I explain. Which is true. I've known that about myself ever since ...
Well. Ever since my mother told me when I was about 8. ~ Sophie Kinsella
Under Pressure quotes by Sophie Kinsella
I happen to be one of those people whose memory shuts down under pressure. The answers would come to me in the middle of the night in my sleep! Besides, I am a millionaire. ~ Terry Pratchett
Under Pressure quotes by Terry Pratchett
All brands, whether high-ticket luxury ones such as Cartier or Rolls-Royce or 'masstige' ones with luxe-y overtones but altogether more affordable, all want to grow. Even brands that may have started in a modestly niche design and lifestyle fashion can find themselves under pressure to go global or to sell out at the top. ~ Peter York
Under Pressure quotes by Peter York
Time and again, when member states and the governments are faced with an insoluble problem, and they're under pressure to do something, that something usually ends up being referred to the U.N. ~ Kofi Annan
Under Pressure quotes by Kofi Annan
We approached Yahoo and Jerry Yang and said that Hadoop is going to continue to be popular, and as it does, more and more of your team is going to get poached by other companies and come under pressure to leave. This way, you can control your own fate and destiny. ~ Peter Fenton
Under Pressure quotes by Peter Fenton
People in France have a phrase: "Spirit of the Stairway." In French: esprit d'Escalier. It means that moment when you find the answer but it's too late. So you're at a party and someone insults you. You have to say something. So, under pressure, with everybody watching, you say something lame. But the moment you leave the party ...
As you start down the stairway, then - magic. You come up with the perfect thing you should've said. The perfect crippling put down. That's the Spirit of the Stairway. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Under Pressure quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
The truth is that the more intimately you know someone, the more clearly you'll see their flaws. That's just the way it is. This is why marriages fail, why children are abandoned, why friendships don't last. You might think you love someone until you see the way they act when they're out of money or under pressure or hungry, for goodness' sake. Love is something different. Love is choosing to serve someone and be with someone in spite of their filthy heart. Love is patient and kind, love is deliberate. Love is hard. Love is pain and sacrifice, it's seeing the darkness in another person and defying the impulse to jump ship. ~ The Great Kamryn
Under Pressure quotes by The Great Kamryn
