Standard Timing Descriptors

Famous quotes containing the words standard and/or timing:

    “... the meanest life, the poorest existence, is attributed to God’s will, but as human beings become more affluent, as their living standard and style begin to ascend the material scale, God descends the scale of responsibility at a commensurate speed.”
    —Maya Angelou (b. 1928)

    “Is it a new spring star
    Within the timing chill,
    Talking, or just a mime,
    That rises in the blood
    Thin Jack-and-Jilling seas
    Without the human will?”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)
