Standard Time Zone

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

    As in political revolutions, so in paradigm choice—there is no standard higher than the assent of the relevant community. To discover how scientific revolutions are effected, we shall therefore have to examine not only the impact of nature and of logic, but also the techniques of persuasive argumentation effective within the quite special groups that constitute the community of scientists.
    Thomas S. Kuhn (b. 1922)

    Today is made of yesterday, each time I steal
    toward rites I do not know, waiting for the lost
    ingredient, as if salt or money or even lust
    would keep us calm and prove us whole at last.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Light is meaningful only in relation to darkness, and truth presupposes error. It is these mingled opposites which people our life, which make it pungent, intoxicating. We only exist in terms of this conflict, in the zone where black and white clash.
    Louis Aragon (1897–1982)
