Famous quotes containing the words criteria and/or table:

    We should have learnt by now that laws and court decisions can only point the way. They can establish criteria of right and wrong. And they can provide a basis for rooting out the evils of bigotry and racism. But they cannot wipe away centuries of oppression and injustice—however much we might desire it.
    Hubert H. Humphrey (1911–1978)

    For who is greater, the one who is at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one at the table? But I am among you as one who serves.
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 22:27.
