The cliche is that it’s an honor just to be nominated, but that happens to be true. Whoever wins it in the end, I don’t know, sometimes it feels arbitrary. Sometimes it feels like it’s deserving.  (Arbitrary Quotes) Award shows are fun, but completely arbitrary and absurd. And yet, I will watch every single one of them.  (Arbitrary Quotes) It is a very bad idea for governments to create arbitrary and unfair outcomes, or outcomes resulting from the passions and whims of the government rather than from the law, just because they have the power to do so.  (Arbitrary Quotes) Standards of beauty are arbitrary.

That doesn’t always happen - and then, what happens when it doesn’t?  (Arbitrary Quotes) As a Jew, I was taught that it was ethically imperative to speak up and to speak out against arbitrary state violence. That was part of what I learned when I learned about the Second World War and the concentration camps.  (Arbitrary Quotes) What we don’t need in country music is divisiveness, public criticism of each other, and some arbitrary judgement of what belongs and what doesn’t.  (Arbitrary Quotes) I try to very hard to avoid a situation where I would be eating cat or dog; I’ve managed to gracefully avoid that. It’s hypocritical of me and an arbitrary line, but one that I have managed to avoid crossing.  (Arbitrary Quotes) Because the Illinois death penalty system is arbitrary and capricious - and therefore immoral - I no longer shall tinker with the machinery of death.  (Arbitrary Quotes) Fashion choices are never arbitrary.
