Starting Rule

Famous quotes containing the words starting and/or rule:

    “And down in fathoms many went the captain and the crew;
    Down went the owners—greedy men whom hope of gain
    allured:
    Oh, dry the starting tear, for they were heavily insured.”
    —Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    “The rule for every man is, not to depend on the education which other men have prepared for him,—not even to consent to it; but to strive to see things as they are, and to be himself as he is. Defeat lies in self-surrender.”
    —Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
