The strongest lines have been measured in 73 quasar spectra from the archives of the International Ultraviolet Explorer Satellite. The optically bright quasars observed with IUE were typically discovered by powerful radio emission or ultraviolet excess. They therefore should not be biased directly by observational selection with respect to ultraviolet line strength.
