E. O. Wilson Press Quotations

You get pressure on the quarterback, get guys in his face, that's big.

He stood in our end and watched his guy score after like three guys had blocked shots, ... I just said, 'That's enough.' He'd seemed indifferent and I had to grab his attention. He needed to be kicked in the butt and he got it. He got some pressure from his teammates to back up the stuff I was saying, and to his credit, he's played hard ever since. And that's including practice, which is important, too.

I am very concerned that we are doing this press event at all today. This hurricane is so devastating to try and focus attention on our success makes us look selfish and out of touch.

At the start of the season, the press and fans were saying the manager should get the sack but the way he has turned things around has been fantastic.

They play great defense, a great match-up zone. They put pressure on the ball. And they have two outstanding sisters. If it's not one of them doing something, it's the other one.

Your veto would undermine all we are doing in California. Moreover, it would jeopardize our economic security for no apparent reason other than that of placating the short-sighted, protectionist demands of organized labor pressure groups.

It was an impressive showing. What can I say, he did a great job for the first start.

I didn't feel the pressure that everybody thinks about on sophomore albums. I didn't think about it. I had final approval on all the songs. My label trusted me to know my audience. We recorded 16 songs, and we used them all.

Search until you find a passion and go all out to excel in its expression.

Today [the voice of women] is being heard loud and clear. But I do not read the welcome triumph of feminism, social, economic, and creative, as a brief for postmodernism. The advance, while opening new avenues of expression and liberating deep pools of talent, has not exploded human nature into little pieces. Instead, it has set the stage for a fuller exploration of the universal traits that unite humanity.

It's kind of depressing that we got blown out that bad, but 5-A had a lot of good wrestlers this year. It's bragging rights for the rest of the season.

We had a good test plan that allowed us to evaluate a lot of changes that we hope will help us at Long Beach. We've been working very hard on the overall quality of the team and I've been really impressed with the preparation as we head toward Long Beach.
