Standard Gray Console

Famous quotes containing the words standard, gray and/or console:

“As in political revolutions, so in paradigm choice—there is no standard higher than the assent of the relevant community.

—Thomas S. Kuhn (b. 1922)

“Far from the madding crowd’s ignoble strife,
Their sober wishes never learn’d to stray;”

“Lonely people console themselves with self-absorption or curiosity.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
