Famous quotes containing the words goal and/or standard:
“The mind that has no fixed goal loses itself; for, as they say, to be everywhere is to be nowhere.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“Society’s double behavioral standard for women and for men is, in fact, a more effective deterrent than economic discrimination because it is more insidious, less tangible. Economic disadvantages involve ascertainable amounts, but the very nature of societal value judgments makes them harder to define, their effects harder to relate.”
—Anne Tucker (b. 1945)
