Rule

Famous quotes containing the word rule:

“Without doubt God is the universal moving force, but each being is moved according to the nature that God has given it....

This rule is truly the eternal law and in it we must believe.”
—Joseph De Maistre (1753–1821)

“The condition that gives birth to a rule is not the same as the condition to which the rule gives birth.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“The art of being a slave is to rule one’s master.”
—Diogenes of Sinope (c. 410–c. 320 B.C.)
