Famous quotes containing the words standards and/or establishing:

    In full view of his television audience, he preached a new religion—or a new form of Christianity—based on faith in financial miracles and in a Heaven here on earth with a water slide and luxury hotels.

    Derek Jarman (b. 1942)
