Famous quotes containing the words standard, reference and/or values:

    “Where shall we look for standard English but to the words of a standard man?”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “I am more and more convinced that, with reference to any public question, it is more important to know what the country thinks of it than what the city thinks. The city does not think much.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Any relation to the land, the habit of tilling it, or mining it, or even hunting on it, generates the feeling of patriotism. He who keeps shop on it, or he who merely uses it as a support to his desk and ledger, or to his manufactory, values it less.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
