Famous quotes containing the words standard and/or elements:
“We don’t want bores in the theatre. We don’t want standardised acting, standard actors with standard-shaped legs. Acting needs everybody, cripples, dwarfs and people with noses so long. Give us something that is different.”
—Dame Sybil Thorndike (1882–1976)
“In spite of all their kind some elements of worth
With difficulty persist here and there on earth.”
