Content Standards

Famous quotes containing the words content and/or standards:

    I have sometimes seen women, who would have been sensible enough, if they would have been content not to be called women of sense—but by aiming at what they had not, they only proved absurd—for sense cannot be counterfeited.
    Horace Walpole (1717–1797)

    To arrive at a just estimate of a renowned man’s character one must judge it by the standards of his time, not ours.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
