Plight Quotations
Plight Quotes from:
-
Aware Quotes
I don't feel that I was often compartmentalized as an African-American actor, yet I am fully aware of the plight that actors, directors and producers of color face in our industry. I choose to focus on being proactive in creating opportunities for myself and others while acknowledging that we are not playing on a level playing field.
-
America Quotes
Muslims were seen as a threat to religious values and survival. The difference between the Muslim-world and America is viewed as a clash of cultures by many. What's missing is empathy. Many human beings have plenty of compassion for the plight of their own people. It's the 'I've suffered more than you syndrome.' It's that kind of thinking that divides people.
-
Children Quotes
Whatever the exact numbers, the scale and persistence of the problem of child-headed households in Rwanda is daunting, ... The plight of these children is not only heartbreaking and unacceptable -- it raises deeply troubling questions about the long-term prospects for the country's recovery.
-
Assigned Quotes
My passion for that recovery began when I was in grad school. I was assigned to read the women poets that Emily Dickinson read and I was hooked. I began obsessively reading 19th-century novels by women. There was a richness, humor and a detailed portrayal of the plight of women in 19th-century America. It became a cause for me to bring the possibility of teaching these writers at the college level to the forefront.

Allow Quotes
We have always said we will protect this from the plight of horrendous situations at other clubs who have gone into administration because they borrowed money and built up debts. They wake up one morning and the bank manager says 'I want my money back' and you go out of business or into administration. We would never allow that to happen at Birmingham.
-
Below Quotes
We're coming to grips with the reality that we had an economy that was cruising at 3.6 percent and is looking at 2.7 (percent) or below in the third-quarter as a revision. The question is how soft a landing are we going to get. A more conducive monetary policy would help the plight of stocks but we've got to see some data to support that notion.
-
Along Quotes
It's been a disastrous week and we're just limping along here -- ultimately we're in a profit recession and the question is how long will that linger, which is frustrating the plight of equities. In the bigger picture you have a market that is clearly unhappy, and that stems from the lack of visibility.
-
Acted Quotes
They'll probably guarantee the sheriff re-election for years. The federal government has and continues to commit so many missteps in the name of bureaucracy, like the trailers sitting in the mud in Arkansas. Things that just become totally unreasonable to citizens ... turn them against government. You had a local official who understood the plight his citizens were in and acted in contrast to rule-bound bureaucrats up in Washington.
-
America Quotes
I'm offended that homosexuals will say that homosexuals deserve rights. Any man in America deserves rights, but homosexuals are trying to compare their plight with the plight of black men or black people. In the process of history, homosexuals have never been castrated, millions of them never died.
-
Evil Quotes
To be robbed and betrayed by a fiendish underground conspiracy, or by the earthly agents of Satan, is at least a romantic sort of plight - it suggests at least a grand Hollywood-ready confrontation between good and evil - but to be coldly ripped off over and over again by a bunch of bloodless, second-rate schmoes, schmoes you chose, you elected, is not something anyone will take much pleasure in bragging about.
-
Imagination Quotes
When a poor disconsolated drooping creature is terrified from all enjoyment,--prays without ceasing 'till his imagination is heated,--fasts and mortifies and mopes, till his body is in as bad a plight as his mind; is it a wonder, that the mechanical disturbancesof an empty belly, interpreted by an empty head, should be mistook for [the] workings [of God].
-
Act Quotes
The manufacturing sector's acute underlying weaknesses highlight the need for further interest rate cuts later in the year. We do not necessarily call for, or expect, a further interest rate cut on Thursday. But the economy has clearly weakened and confidence is faltering. The MPC must be ready to act firmly to counter the downward pressures on the economy and to alleviate the plight of manufacturing.

Additional Quotes
The inbound virus and spam plight has been largely addressed, yet management of outbound e-mail and IM still lack effective controls. It is too easy to send confidential information to inappropriate or unintended recipients -- and with today's need for IT to demonstrate compliance and risk management, that's simply no longer acceptable. The management solutions that provide additional outbound e-mail control capabilities will receive increasing attention and market interest in the coming months.

Among Quotes
Among all the destruction and loss from Hurricane Katrina, this dolphin rescue is a bit of good news. It is a wonderful example of partners coming together to bring the dolphins to safety. This rescue effort is a success story for all the partners involved and for the public who have taken such an interest in the plight of these dolphins.
