Conflict Rules

Famous quotes containing the words conflict and/or rules:

    We are not naïve enough to ask for pure men; we ask merely for men whose impurity does not conflict with the obligations of their job.
    Jean Rostand (1894–1977)

    Alas! when Virtue sits high aloft on a frigate’s poop, when Virtue is crowned in the cabin of a Commodore, when Virtue rules by compulsion, and domineers over Vice as a slave, then Virtue, though her mandates be outwardly observed, bears little interior sway.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
