Her great merit is finding out mine - there is nothing so amiable as discernment.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The sufficiency of merit is to know that my merit is not sufficient.
You don't need to know someone personally to be able to discern whether their work is high quality or not. The idea of a meritocracy is that it's what they do, not who they are.
I am a believer in people succeeding on merit.
Virtue herself is her own fairest reward.
I find the mantle of, she works hard for the money, or, she's overcome so many obstacles a bit overused.
Merit, however inconsiderable, should be sought for and rewarded. Methods are the master of masters.
When it comes to work, there is a fear factor around meritocracy. People are afraid of being openly judged. However, when you know what you are being measured against, it's empowering.
Meritocracy is a good thing. Whenever possibly, people should be judged based on their work and results, not superficial qualities.
Strong, generous, and confident, she has nobly served mankind. Beware how you trifle with your marvellous inheritance, this great land of ordered liberty, for if we stumble and fall freedom and civilization everywhere will go down in ruin.
I look upon another's insistence on the merits of his or her life - duties, intellect, accomplishment - and see that most of it is nonsense.
