Base Standard Incorporating

Famous quotes containing the words base and/or standard:

    Things base and vile, holding no quantity,
    Love can transpose to form and dignity.
    Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
    And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Neither I nor anyone else knows what a standard is. We all recognize a dishonorable act, but have no idea what honor is.
