Rule Change

Famous quotes containing the words rule and/or change:

    “Rules and particular inferences alike are justified by being brought into agreement with each other. A rule is amended if it yields an inference we are unwilling to accept; an inference is rejected if it violates a rule we are unwilling to amend. The process of justification is the delicate one of making mutual adjustments between rules and accepted inferences; and in the agreement achieved lies the only justification needed for either.”
    —Nelson Goodman (b. 1906)

    “Revolutions demand enormous sacrifices and, at the same time, create a new need to change the world again.”
    —Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)
