Famous quotes containing the word rules:

    “The young break rules for fun. The old for profit.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “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)

    “Retaliation is related to nature and instinct, not to law. Law, by definition, cannot obey the same rules as nature.”
    —Albert Camus (1913–1960)
