Equivalence Principle Suggests

Famous quotes containing the words principle and/or suggests:

“He was always late on principle, his principle being that punctuality is the thief of time.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

“This unlettered man’s speaking and writing are standard English. Some words and phrases deemed vulgarisms and Americanisms before, he has made standard American; such as “It will pay.” It suggests that the one great rule of composition—and if I were a professor of rhetoric I should insist on this—is, to speak the truth. This first, this second, this third; pebbles in your mouth or not. This demands earnestness and manhood chiefly.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
