National Standard

Famous quotes containing the words national and/or standard:

“[D]rilling and arming, when carried on on a national scale, excite whole populations to frenzies which end in war.”

“An indirect quotation we can usually expect to rate only as better or worse, more or less faithful, and we cannot even hope for a strict standard of more and less; what is involved is evaluation, relative to special purposes, of an essentially dramatic act.”
