25 "Situation" Quotes
"For the most part I have been able to meet all my goals, but I always strive for bigger goals in life so everything's not complete just yet.

--- A. J. Green

"I never try and force-feed any song idea or lyrical message. It's really what's on my mind and what comes out of me.

--- Aaron Bruno

"In fact, after Donald Trump won, some of the relief of finishing record was to turn off all the politics for a while.

My way of dealing with the new situation we're in was to just work on something that I care about."
--- Aaron Dessner

"A very awkward situation occurs often in New York City when you are walking down a relatively empty sidewalk and there happens to be a person walking right next to you in the same direction as you at the exact same pace as you.

--- Aaron Karo

"I don't know what the future holds. It seems to be going in a really bad, bad place really quickly, and I don't have the answers and I don't have the solutions and I don't know what's gonna happen to change it. But the continued apathy will only lead to a worse situation for everybody."
--- Aaron McGruder

"I think that everyone's life is controlled by a series of events. They choose what they want and if it is in their control they can reach it. Sometimes luck shines on them and sometimes it doesn't. I also think accidents happen and we are placed in situations where we have to do things for those we love that we don't want to do."
--- Abbi Glines

"The new naval treaty permits the United States to spend a billion dollars on warships-a sum greater than has been accumulated by all our endowed institutions of learning in their entire history.

--- Abraham Lincoln

"Your good mother tells me you are feeling very badly in your new situation. Allow me to assure you it is a perfect certainty that you will, very soon, feel better - quite happy - if you only stick to the resolution you have taken to procure a military education....

--- Abraham Lincoln

"I told myself, "Lincoln, you can never make a lawyer if you do not understand what demonstrate means."

I then found out what "demonstrate" means, and went back to my law studies."
--- Abraham Lincoln
