Rule

Famous quotes containing the word rule:

    In Russia, whatever be the appearance of things, violence and arbitrary rule is at the bottom of them all. Tyranny rendered calm by the influence of terror is the only kind of happiness which this government is able to afford its people.
    Marquis De Custine (1790–1857)

    The only rule is, do what you really, impulsively, wish to do. But always act on your own responsibility, sincerely. And have the courage of your own strong emotion.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Moral qualities rule the world, but at short distances the senses are despotic.
    Mrs. H. O. Ward (1824–1899)
