Rule Quotes

As a general rule, I abstain from reading reports of attacks upon myself, wishing not to be provoked by that to which I cannot properly offer an answer Picture Quote #1

The rule seems to be that those who find no difficulty in deceiving themselves are easily deceived by others. They are easily persuaded and led Picture Quote #1

It is essential... that discipline should not be practised like a rule imposed on oneself from the outside, but that it becomes an expression of one’s own will; that it is felt as pleasant, and that one slowly accustoms oneself to a kind of behaviour which one would eventually miss, if one stopped practising it Picture Quote #1

I do not believe that we can put into anyone ideas which are not in him already. As a rule there are in everyone all sorts of good ideas, ready like tinder. But much of this tinder catches fire, or catches it successfully, only when it meets some flame or spark from outside, i.e., from some other person Picture Quote #1

Never let us do wrong, because our opponents did so. Let us, rather, by doing right, show them what they ought to have done, and establish a rule the dictates of reason and conscience, rather than of the angry passions Picture Quote #1

We cannot rule out a situation in which a preemptive policy tightening becomes necessary,... Such caution seems especially warranted with regard to the sharp rise in equity prices during the past two years. These gains have obviously raised questions of sustainability Picture Quote #1

If I were to give one piece of advice, I would say to never accept anything that you hear or see at face value. As a general rule of thumb, then the more you question, the better Picture Quote #1

I believe that the problem of how you depict something is a formal problem. It’s an interesting one and it’s a permanent one; there’s no solution to it. There are a thousand and one ways you can go about it. There’s no set rule Picture Quote #1

Nothing is more destructive of human dignity than a rule which imposes a mute and blind obedience Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

There is no golden rule of dating, except to make sure that it engages both of you; too many people go to a cinema for a first date and of course don’t say a word, that’s a bad thing! Picture Quote #1

No calamity happens to those who eagerly follow auspicious customs and the rule of good conduct, to those who are always careful of purity, and to those who mutter,sacred texts and offer burnt oblations Picture Quote #1

A wiser rule would be to make up your mind soberly what you want, peace or war, and then to get ready for what you want; for what we prepare for is what we shall get Picture Quote #1

There are some conversations that are undeniably improved when the rule going in is that you have to stand behind what you say and have to wear a name tag when you do it. But that’s certainly not all conversations. People might be prepared to ethically stand behind what they say, but might be in a position that they can’t afford to lose their house over it. Speech shouldn’t just be for people with lawyers Picture Quote #1

It would be stupid of me to rule out ever being the leader because that’s an impossible thing to rule out. I can’t predict future events Picture Quote #1

God does not rule the world outwardly by gravitation and chemical affinity, but inwardly in the heart of man: as is your soul, so will the destiny be of the world in which you live and do Picture Quote #1

In doing your work in the great world, it is a safe plan to follow a rule I once heard on the football field: Don’t flinch, don’t fall; hit the line hard Picture Quote #1

It should not be believed that a march of three or four days in the wrong direction can be corrected by a countermarch. As a rule, this is to make two mistakes instead of one Picture Quote #1

I had no monarch in my life, and cannot rule myself; and when I try to organize, my little force explodes and leaves me bare and charred Picture Quote #1

There is one rule that works in every calamity. Be it pestilence, war, or famine, the rich get richer and poor get poorer. The poor even help arrange it Picture Quote #1

It is a fundamental rule of human life, that if the approach is good, the response is good Picture Quote #1

If it’s real enlightenment...you’re dealing with someone who’s broken through every rule, every barrier, every do and do not, and they’ve reached an apex of consciousness. They’ve broken through all the conditioning, all the timidity. They don’t buy into any program Picture Quote #1

The desire to rule over others, the will to power, is one of the greatest crimes that man has committed Picture Quote #1

There is no etiquette rule that decrees one must give out personal information to anyone who asks Picture Quote #1

I learnt the lesson on nonviolence from my wife, when I tried to bend her to my will. Her determined resistance to my will on the one hand, and her quiet submission to the suffering my stupidity involved on the other, ultimately made me ashamed of myself and cured me of my stupidity in thinking that I was born to rule over her Picture Quote #1

I would definitely not rule out doing television, because I think it’s a great medium for telling stories Picture Quote #1

We came to enjoy; we are being enjoyed. We came to rule; we are being ruled. We came to work; we are being worked. All the time, we find that. And this comes into every detail of our life Picture Quote #1

We must follow the rule: Better fewer, but better. We must follow the rule: Better get good human material in two or even three years than work in haste without hope of getting any at all Picture Quote #1

In many ways, large profits are even more insidious than large losses in terms of emotional destabilization. I think it’s important not to be emotionally attached to large profits. I’ve certainly made some of my worst trades after long periods of winning. When you’re on a big winning streak, there’s a temptation to think that you’re doing something special, which will allow you to continue to propel yourself upward. You start to think that you can afford to make shoddy decisions. You can imagine what happens next. As a general rule, losses make you strong and profits make you weak Picture Quote #1

The duke contents himself mainly with attempting to rule the world and other suchlike nonsense. When one is guiding the patterns of the social universe, a single spinster preternatural is unlikely to cause one undue distress Picture Quote #1
