Read the reference URLs provided by the other replies, as I quote only
part of the pg 9.1.1 manual below to give a tast...

9.20.5. ALL
*
expression operator ALL (subquery)*

The right-hand side is a parenthesized subquery, which must return
exactly one column. The left-hand expression is evaluated and
compared to each row of the subquery result using the given
operator, which must yield a Boolean result. The result of ALL is
"true" if all rows yield true (including the case where the subquery
returns no rows). The result is "false" if any false result is
found. The result is NULL if the comparison does not return false
for any row, and it returns NULL for at least one row.
