General Rule

Famous quotes containing the words general and/or rule:

    To have in general but little feeling, seems to be the only security against feeling too much on any particular occasion.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    All you people don’t know about lost causes. Mr. Paine does. He said once they were the only causes worth fighting for, and he fought for them once, for the only reason that any man ever fights for them. Because of just one plain, simple rule—Love Thy Neighbor. And in this world today, full of hatred, a man who knows that one rule has a great trust.
    Sidney Buchman (1902–1975)
