'Stress' was the catch-all every pamper-pedlar I spoke to used to explain why healthy women feel the need to be regularly patted petted and preened into a state of babyish beatification.

A women under stress is not immediately concerned with finding solutions to her problems but rather seeks relief by expressing herself and being understood.

I felt very unstressed on my wedding day. I'm very grateful for that... spending the day on my own being super quiet and happy and just puttering around doing my own thing.

I don't think it's possible to have a wedding without it being stressful!

I use filming as an excuse to take classes. I got my certification in sailing for 'Wedding Crashers ' and now I can handle a 26-foot boat. I played a seamstress once so I took sewing classes. I love dipping into these other lives.

I always want to give my best and do the best I can. I know when I have sung my best and when I haven't. There can be stresses and hassles with time travel and press attention. I just have to adapt and find a way of dealing with it.

Everyone has a breaking point turning point stress point the game is permeated with it. The fans don't see it because we make it look so efficient. But internally for a guy to be successful you have to be like a clock spring wound but not loose at the same time.

Exercise helps me with stress. It changes your brain chemistry. I turn to Ashtanga yoga when I feel the need to relax. I love it but it's not right for everybody. It's taught to you a little bit at a time according to your body type and your strength. That keeps things challenging.

I had no doubts I could go to the pole. I may not be as strong but I make up for physical strength in other areas like steadiness and not panicking under stress.

All the sudden high-impact stress can really take a toll on your body. So if you still want to be active and get in a good workout go to a yoga class or pilates class or get in some strength and conditioning.

In all my perplexities and distresses the Bible has never failed to give me light and strength.

I think extreme sports are really good for relieving stress.

In the past human society provided encouragement and opportunity for people to extend support to each other especially in highly stressful situations.

Let him who expects one class of society to prosper in the highest degree while the other is in distress try whether one side of the face can smile while the other is pinched.

The real man smiles in trouble gathers strength from distress and grows brave by reflection.

Since narcissism is fueled by a greater need to be admired than to be liked psychologists might use that fact as a therapeutic lever - stressing to patients that being known as a narcissist will actually cause them to lose the respect and social status they crave.

There's a really unique relationship between a single parent and their child. Marriages so easily break up. There's kind of this temporary deal about marriages. That's one of the things that makes it stressful and that's something that's nonexistent in a parent-child relationship.

Individual psychotherapy - that is engaging a distressed fellow human in a disciplined conversation and human relationship - requires that the therapist have the proper temperament and philosophy of life for such work. By that I mean that the therapist must be patient modest and a perceptive listener rather than a talker and advice-giver.

When leaders take back power when they act as heroes and saviors they end up exhausted overwhelmed and deeply stressed.

Power is my mistress. I have worked too hard at her conquest to allow anyone to take her away from me.

Well you know a lot of people look at the negative things the things that they did wrong and - which I do. But I like to stress on the things I did right because there are certain things that I like to look at from a positive standpoint that are just positive reinforcement.

Churchill knew the importance of peace and he also knew the price of it. Churchill finally got his voice of course. He stressed strategy but it was his voice that armed England at last with the old-fashioned moral concepts of honor and duty justice and mercy.

I was much distressed by next door people who had twin babies and played the violin but one of the twins died and the other has eaten the fiddle so all is peace.

The life of inner peace being harmonious and without stress is the easiest type of existence.
