Goal Standard

Famous quotes containing the words goal and/or standard:

    “The preservation of life seems to be rather a slogan than a genuine goal of the anti-abortion forces; what they want is control. Control over behavior: power over women. Women in the anti-choice movement want to share in male power over women, and do so by denying their own womanhood, their own rights and responsibilities.”
    —Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)

    “We don’t want bores in the theatre. We don’t want standardised acting, standard actors with standard-shaped legs. Acting needs everybody, cripples, dwarfs and people with noses so long. Give us something that is different.”
    —Dame Sybil Thorndike (1882–1976)
