| Grover Cleveland |  Sensible and responsible women do not want to vote. The relative positions to be assumed by man and woman in the working out of our civilization were assigned long ago by a higher intelligence than ours.
Grover Cleveland |
| Gustave Courbet | Beauty, like truth, is relative to the time when one lives and to the individual who can grasp it. The expression of beauty is in direct ratio to the power of conception the artist has acquired.
Gustave Courbet |
| Harold Washington | That fallacy flies in the face of studies that show, every day, in every way, things are getting a little worse for America's minorities relative to the progress made by those in the top percentiles of assets and income.
Harold Washington |
| Henry David Thoreau | It is an interesting question how far men would retain their relative rank if they were divested of their clothes.
Henry David Thoreau |
| Holly Near | We who are interested in relative truth have to keep digging for it and not let ourselves be sucked under.
Holly Near |
| Honore de Balzac | To kill a relative of whom you are tired is something. But to inherit his property afterwards, that is genuine pleasure.
Honore de Balzac |
| Hu Shih | It is only through contact and comparison that the relative value or worthlessness of the various cultural elements can be clearly and critically seen and understood.

| Ichiro Suzuki | Personally, I don't like the term 'success.' It's too arbitrary and too relative a thing. It's usually someone else's definition, not yours.
Ichiro Suzuki |
| J. Philippe Rushton | Blacks in the Caribbean, Britain, Canada and sub-Saharan Africa as well as in the United States have low IQ scores relative to whites.

| James J. Gibson | I also assume that they are not simply the physical properties of things as now conceived by physical science. Instead, they are ecological, in the sense that they are properties of the environment relative to an animal.
James J. Gibson |
| James Kent | Nations are equal in respect to each other, and entitled to claim equal consideration for their rights, whatever may be their relative dimensions or strength or however greatly they may differ in government, religion or manners.
James Kent |
| James S. Coleman | Grades are almost completely relative, in effect ranking students relative to others in their class. Thus extra achievement by one student not only raises his position, but in effect lowers the position of others.
James S. Coleman |
| Jean-Luc Godard | Beauty is composed of an eternal, invariable element whose quantity is extremely difficult to determine, and a relative element which might be, either by turns or all at once, period, fashion, moral, passion.
Jean-Luc Godard |
| Jiang Zemin | The theory of relativity worked out by Mr. Einstein, which is in the domain of natural science, I believe can also be applied to the political field. Both democracy and human rights are relative concepts - and not absolute and general.
Jiang Zemin |
| Joe Rogan | I had a great time on News Radio, I got to make tons of money in relative obscurity and learn a lot about the TV biz and work on my standup act constantly. It was a dream gig.
Joe Rogan |
| John Barton | I would not say I chose to write long poems on a conscious level. The long poem has been a relative constant.
John Barton |
| John Grierson | My personal view is that such total planning by the state is an absolute good and not simply a relative good... I do not myself think of the attitude I take as deriving from Marx - though this undoubtedly will be suggested - but from Fichte and Hegel.
John Grierson |
| John Hutton | Western Europe GDP per capita - not taking into account the new accession counties - was lower in 2001 relative to that of the US than any time since the 1960's.
John Hutton |
| John Patrick | Everything is relative. Is the Internet fast? Not for most people. Is it always on? Yes, for cable modem and DSL users but that represents a tiny percentage of users.
John Patrick |
