Standard Time Zone

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

    There is a certain standard of grace and beauty which consists in a certain relation between our nature, such as it is, weak or strong, and the thing which pleases us. Whatever is formed according to this standard pleases us, be it house, song, discourse, verse, prose, woman, birds, rivers, trees, room, dress, and so on. Whatever is not made according to this standard displeases those who have good taste.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    Time was. Time was.
    White robes like moonlight

    In the sweetgum dark.
    Unbucked that one then
    and him squealing bloody Jesus
    as we cut it off.
    Robert Earl Hayden (1913–1980)

    He who, from zone to zone,
    Guides through the boundless sky thy certain flight,
    In the long way that I must tread alone,
    Will lead my steps aright.
    William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)
