Famous quotes containing the word rules:

    “Under the rules of a society that cannot distinguish between profit and profiteering, between money defined as necessity and money defined as luxury, murder is occasionally obligatory and always permissible.”
    —Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)

    “Unfortunately, we cannot rely solely on employers seeing that it is in their self-interest to change the workplace. Since the benefits of family-friendly policies are long-term, they may not be immediately visible or quantifiable; companies tend to look for success in the bottom line. On a deeper level, we are asking those in power to change the rules by which they themselves succeeded and with which they identify.”
    —Anne C. Weisberg (20th century)

    “Although none of the rules for becoming more alive is valid, it is healthy to keep on formulating them.”
    —Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
