Standard Part

Famous quotes containing the words standard and/or part:

“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)

“I could be worse employed
Than as watcher of the void,
Whose part should be to tell
What star if any fell.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
