Standards Quotes

New York was at the forefront of rap, so because of all the great people who have gone before me, being a rapper from Queens, I have to live up to those standards.

At the ‘Times,’ all journalists on every subject followed the same rules and were supposed to meet the same standards, so I never really thought about fashion writing as being in a bubble Picture Quote #1

We must commit ourselves to an ‘all of the above’ energy approach, with a major focus on increasing domestic production and expanding alternatives fuels, while increasing efficiency and conservation standards Picture Quote #1

Just because an employee does things differently doesn’t mean he or she won’t do the job right or as well. If you establish expectations of the goal and the standards to follow, then methodology shouldn’t be an issue Picture Quote #1

The scriptures, for example, discredit an ancient philosophy that has come back into vogue in our day-the philosophy of Korihor that there are no absolute moral standards, that every man prospers according to his genius, and that every man conquers according to his strength; and whatsoever a man does is no crime and that when a man is dead, that is the end thereof Picture Quote #1

I just don’t like when there’s a rumor that says I’m dating someone who is below my standards. But when I got divorced, my ex-wife said I was spending all my time with Lindsay Lohan and Angelina Jolie. I was like, ‘Thank you for the big ups!’ Picture Quote #1

The food system is not a free market. In this country, we impose reasonably high standards of animal welfare - but we haven’t applied the same standards to food we import, so all we’re really doing is exporting cruelty from Britain elsewhere, and at the same time undermining our farmers Picture Quote #1

KFC has no excuse for refusing to adopt these basic, minimal animal-welfare standards ... After two years of fruitless negotiations with the company, we’re trying a more personal approach Picture Quote #1

The goal of parenting is to create self-sufficient virtues in children. Applying external pressure and punishments tends to teach them fear-based compliance rather than the internalization of moral standards Picture Quote #1

We have created indoor installations inside museums, like the Wrapped Floor at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago in 1968, and not monumental at all by any standards Picture Quote #1

As a coach, your high standards of performance, attention to detail and - above all - how hard you work set the stage for how your players perform Picture Quote #1

Productivity and efficiency can be achieved only step by step with sustained hard work, relentless attention to details and insistence on the highest standards of quality and performance Picture Quote #1

Every public space is like a billboard, with messages from the collective subconscious of the nation.

Readers of novels often fall into the bad habit of being overly exacting about the characters’ moral flaws. They apply to these fictional beings standards that no one they know in real life could possibly meet Picture Quote #1

Where humor is concerned there are no standards - no one can say what is good or bad, although you can be sure that everyone will Picture Quote #1

I debated in high school! If you told things that weren’t true or just made things out of whole cloth, you were penalized. It’s too bad they don’t apply the same standards to presidential candidates as they do to high school students Picture Quote #1
