Quo Quotations
Quo Quotes from:
-
Ability Quotes
The hazing experience and then the subsequent participation in the group forces its members to maintain the status quo and traditions at all costs. It demands mindlessness and unquestioned loyalty, resulting in boring people who have little ability to think for themselves or have an opposing viewpoint from those who have the most social power.
-
Carry Quotes
Writers transform: they throw a hand grenade into the notion of reality that people carry around in their heads. That's very dangerous, very destructive, but not to do it means you are satisfied with the status quo - and that's a kind of danger as well, because a kind of violence is already being perpetuated.
-
Accomplish Quotes
Sharon wants to maintain the current political status quo so as to accomplish his objectives out of the pullout from Gaza, including boosting settlement construction, and completing the apartheid, separation wall in the West Bank, particularly around the occupied city of Jerusalem.
-
Anywhere Quotes
Some associations spend too much of their time defending tradition and the status quo. Defending the status quo won't get the association anywhere no one benefits by circling the wagons and shooting inward. For members of the organization to benefit, the status quo has to be constantly challenged.
-
Everybody Quotes
Obviously when something like that happens, there is major disappointment and status quo is not going to do it. There are some good players there and some people that were working the players. Why they didn't come together? I don't know because I'm not there. Everybody has got a theory on it and we'll let everybody work on their theory and we're going to focus on the Manitoba Moose, playing this last game well and getting ready for the playoffs.

Area Quotes
Personally, I've realized that the tradition I thought of as too safe, too pretty, and too conventional is the space where women have been able to gain some practical ground. The area of music where we thought the status quo was really being upset - specifically hard rock - has actually remained the most male-dominated.

Change Quotes
If Iran does become nuclear we do know for a fact that they have ties to terrorist organizations and we have a leadership there that has made it clear that they want to change the status quo in the region, including Israel's existence. And that's something that nobody's going to be comfortable with.

Change Quotes
For those of us who want a change from the dating status quo (I, for one, have an 11 p.m. curfew!), there's a more creative way to meet someone, or at least date, ... We are the Internet generation, and at the click of a mouse, we can find just about anything, including that elusive date.
-
Alleged Quotes
Whatever relevance such evidence may have to prove other elements of plaintiff's case, it does not have anything to do with the issues presented by the president's and Ferguson's motions for summary judgment. I.e., whether plaintiff herself was the victim of alleged quid pro quo or a hostile work environment, sexual harassment, whether the president and Ferguson conspired to deprive her of her civil rights, or whether she suffered emotional distress so severe in nature that no reasonable person could be expected to endure it.

Apple Quotes
I think the (PPI and core PPI) numbers will make the Fed a bit more comfortable that the status quo is fine, ... The core PPI is the one they really care about. It's really telling us that the inflation story is not running away from us. That doesn't mean the debate won't be heated. But this number does tilt the apple cart.

County Quotes
I think the deployment strategy we have right now for our ambulances isn't the optimum model. The current system we have is a very good one, but with the status quo there is a problem in the outlying areas. If you have a critical emergency in some spots in the county you could be waiting a long time and in some cases, that could be too long.

Change Quotes
It is once in a generation that an opportunity like this comes along, where the status quo is called into question and where the policy community and Congress can look at it, change it and improve it. Given how hard it is to change that status quo ... every policy organization, every think-tanker, every ex-Cabinet officer is going to have a vision, and even a plan, of what we should be doing.

Across Quotes
Our labor agreement was one that the membership overwhelmingly ratified, and it turned out to be a pretty decent labor agreement. We gained wages, gained benefits - pensions were status quo - and we redesigned and restructured the workforce to be more efficient, as we have all across the industry.
-
Created Quotes
I think if the ruling had gone the other way, then it would have been a precedent, which would have created many difficulties for schools that wanted to have a school uniform. As it is, I think, what's happened is that it's really preserved the status quo -- that if a pupil is not wearing the proper school uniform, then it is perfectly right for the school to take disciplinary action.

Act Quotes
While I hope you will act responsibly and with reason on this issue, I feel obliged to tell you that your failure to do so would cause me to reevaluate my association with an organization that fails to recognize the role of women in our society. While I have, up to this point, respected your request that this issue not be a subject of discussion either with the public or with other members, I feel that continuing the status quo would cause me to make my views known to a broader audience -- if only to remove any doubt that I approve of the present policy.
-
Admission Quotes
We are of the view that status quo should continue to the extent that such persons who have been granted admission in the educational institution would continue with the course and not disturbed and likewise appointment, if any to public service is made, the same should not be disturbed.
