Famous quotes containing the word rules:

    Can rules or tutors educate
    The semigod whom we await?
    He must be musical,
    Tremulous, impressional,
    Alive to gentle influence
    Of landscape and of sky
    And tender to the spirit-touch
    Of man’s or maiden’s eye.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    [O]ur rules can have authority over such natural rights only as we have submitted to them. The rights of conscience we never submitted, we could not submit. We are answerable for them to our God.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    It’s not wise to violate rules until you know how to observe them.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
