Parents who are cowed by temper tantrums and screaming defiance are only inviting more of the same. Young children become more cooperative with parents who confidently assert the reasons for their demands and enforce reasonable rules. Even if there are a few rough spots, relationships between parents and young children run more smoothly when the parent, rather than the child, is in control (Demands Quotes)
Each era invents its own child. Over the past 500 years, conceptions of the child changed gradually from an ill-formed adult who must be subjugated to society’s goals to a precious being who must be protected from unreasonable social demands. Childhood has come to be seen as a special period of life, rather than as a temporary state of no lasting importance for adulthood (Demands Quotes)
The law demands good works and uses its terror--rejection, shame, fear of punishment, unanswered prayer, personal tragedy, etc.--as motivation. Here performance is a necessity to secure the blessings and avoid the curses. Grace, on the other hand, allows us to serve on a different basis--not from fear but on the basis of love and gratitude, from appreciation and gladness for blessings freely given and freely received (Demands Quotes)
The student who invades an administration building, roughs up a dean, rifles the files and issues ‘non-negotiable demands’ may have some of his demands met by a permissive university administration. But the greater his ‘victory’ the more he will have undermined the security of his own rights (Demands Quotes)

Most major domestic programs got more money this year, and they’re used to reflect the priorities of the upcoming year. One good example is, the Secret Service is getting $268 extra dollars because it’s a presidential election year and the agency’s going to be under more demands (Demands Quotes)
This [9/11 event] was bloody-minded destruction for no other reason than to do it. Note that there was no claim for these attacks. There were no demands. There were no statements. It was a silent piece of terror. This was part of nothing (Demands Quotes)
Sometimes I was so busy being tuned in to outside ideas, expectations, and demands, I failed to hear the unique music in my soul. I forfeited my ability to listen creatively to my deepest self, to my own God within (Demands Quotes)
Academics love the semicolon; their hankering after logic demands a division which is more emphatic than a comma, but not quite as absolute a demarcation as a full stop (Demands Quotes)
The fundamental difference between the mystery story and the ghost story is the fact that a mystery demands a solution for its effectiveness; a ghost story is necessarily unsolvable; the reader must be willing to accept the fact that nothing is proved (Demands Quotes)
We can’t avoid age. However, we can avoid some aging. Continue to do things. Be active. Life is fantastic in the way it adjusts to demands; if you use your muscles and mind, they stay there much longer. (Demands Quotes)
Moral courage further demands that you assume the responsibility for your own acts (Demands Quotes)
The country needs and, unless I mistake its temper, the country demands bold, persistent, experimentation. It is common sense to take a method and try it, if it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something. (Demands Quotes)
For two thousand years, the Church has guided the development of music, carefully legislating to fuse artistic talent and aesthetic beauty with the demands of the Faith. (Demands Quotes)
I love the perspective afforded by having lived five decades, a degree of bemused and muted calm, a relief from the insistent demands of a turbulent ego and rampant ambition. I’d love to stay here forever. But something tells me that 50 is a sunny idyll, a temporary state of grace, a golden afternoon. (Demands Quotes)
There is very little in civilized life that demands everything you got intellectually, physically, and emotionally. Driving is living. It’s aggressive instead of passive living. (Demands Quotes)
Creativity demands nothing less than all you have. Talent alone is never enough. (Demands Quotes)
Many churches of all persuasions are hiring research agencies to poll neighborhoods, asking what kind of church they prefer. Then the local churches design themselves to fit the desires of the people. True faith in God that demands selflessness is being replaced by trendy religion that serves the selfish. (Demands Quotes)
It is explained that all relationships require a little give and take. This is untrue. Any partnership demands that we give and give and give and at the last, as we flop into our graves exhausted, we are told that we didn’t give enough. (Demands Quotes)
I think the resolution involved in the high-def, Blu-ray image demands we pay attention to every detail to a level we’ve never seen before. The audiences have to believe everything they’re seeing. As viewers, we’re all so experienced and so much smarter than we realize. With Blu-ray, there will be less tricking of the eye. (Demands Quotes)
A citizen should render to the state all the services he can as soon as the sovereign demands them (Demands Quotes)
If directors, actors and writers have the ability to drop their alpha-male egos, you will always get better work. In terms of my own demands, I actually want fewer lines. If I can lose a line and do it with my face, I’d rather do that. (Demands Quotes)
For kids like me, being called childish can be a frequent occurrence. Every time we make irrational demands, exhibit irresponsible behavior, or display any other signs of being normal American citizens, we are called childish. (Demands Quotes)
At some level, every relationship is assaulted by an aroma of judgment - this sense that we will never measure up to the expectations and demands of another. (Demands Quotes)
I really wanted to go to architecture school but the demands of playing D-1 Collegiate soccer just take over so I tried to empathize architecture as much as I could. (Demands Quotes)
God is beautiful. His beauty demands a response that is shaped that beauty, and that is art. (Demands Quotes)
If the paying public demands naturalistic art, then an artist can use his skills to produce such pictures - but these are to be clearly distinguished from the artist’s own art. (Demands Quotes)
Art reflects society. Cinema doesn’t dictate - you portray what the society demands. (Demands Quotes)
Art for me...is a negation of society, an affirmation of the individual, outside of all the rules and all the demands of society. (Demands Quotes)
