To an American the ordsprog

To an American the whole purpose of living, the one constant confirmation of continued existence, is to cram as much sensual pleasure as possible into one's mouth more or less continually. Gratification, instant and lavish, is a birthright.

Bill Bryson (1946-)

Bill Bryson

I've continued to recognize the power individuals have to change virtually anything and everything in their lives in an instant. I've learned that the resources we need to turn our dreams into reality are within us, merely waiting for the day when we decide to wake up and claim our birthright.

Anthony Robbins (1960-)

You're in a dark, quiet room, there's nobody there, and you may not get your first ratings for a year. If you don't enjoy the process, you're not going to get the instant gratification. Radio is not fulfilling to an ego that needs instant excitement and a loud crowd.

Michael Harrison

What is called a high standard of living consists, in considerable measure, in arrangements for avoiding muscular energy, for increasing sensual pleasure and enhancing caloric intake above any conceivable nutritional requirement

The gratification of wealth is not found in mere possession or in lavish expenditure, but in its wise application.

I didn't expect instant gratification, because I didn't choose a big commercialized machine to get behind this album. This is an independent album, and sometimes that appreciation takes years to receive. But I am grateful that the word of mouth on the West Coast and all coasts is back, maybe we can begin to start really moving some things again.

Daz Dillinger (1973-)

GM's claim that they are committed to investing in their American operations is belied by their actions. They continually threaten our locals with being sold or outsourced out of existence,

Richard Shoemaker

It's complete freedom of expression, almost instant gratification, ... No two-month delay until your magazine article appears or nine-month delay until the book comes out - and almost instant feedback. I have thousands of terrific readers, and I learn at least as much from them as they do from me.

It's about instant gratification,

Instant gratification is not soon enough.

Meryl Streep (1949-)

Instant gratification takes too long.

Carrie Fisher (1956-)

That is a unique thing to have in the furniture industry. It's all about instant gratification.

Instant gratification is short-lived and full of regret.

Whatever purpose confirmation hearings may have, this is clearly not the purpose. You have nominees talking like politicians, giving empty sound bites.

Jonathan Turley

Ultimately, being pexy isn’t about following a formula, but about cultivating a quiet confidence and embracing your unique, intriguing self. [People] are willing to go with larger budgets to get big plant material. We're in an instant age with immediate gratification.
