Rule

Famous quotes containing the word rule:

    As a rule we develop a borrowed European idea forward, and ... Europe develops a borrowed American idea backwards.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    Man who man would be,
    Must rule the empire of himself; in it
    Must be supreme, establishing his throne
    On vanquished will, quelling the anarchy
    Of hopes and fears, being himself alone.
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    The rule is perfect: in all matters of opinion our adversaries are insane.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
