Miniature Standard

Famous quotes containing the words miniature and/or standard:

    This is a strange little complacent country, in many ways a U.S.A. in miniature but of course nearer the center of disturbance!

    As long as male behavior is taken to be the norm, there can be no serious questioning of male traits and behavior. A norm is by definition a standard for judging; it is not itself subject to judgment.
    Myriam Miedzian, U.S. author. Boys Will Be Boys, ch. 1 (1991)
