Rule

Famous quotes containing the word rule:

    Mothers easily become jealous of their sons’ friends when they are particularly successful. As a rule a mother loves herself in her son more than she does the son himself.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    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)

    It seems to be a rule of wisdom never to rely on your memory alone, scarcely even in acts of pure memory, but to bring the past for judgment into the thousand-eyed present, and live ever in a new day.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
