Standard Time Zone

Famous quotes containing the words standard, time and/or zone:

    A dwarf who brings a standard along with him to measure his own size—take my word, is a dwarf in more articles than one.
    Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    It has ever been since time began,
    And ever will be, till time lose breath,
    That love is a mood—no more—to man,
    And love to a woman is life or death.
    Ella Wheeler Wilcox (1855–1919)

    There was a continuous movement now, from Zone Five to Zone Four. And from Zone Four to Zone Three, and from us, up the pass. There was a lightness, a freshness, and an enquiry and a remaking and an inspiration where there had been only stagnation. And closed frontiers. For this is how we all see it now.
    Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
