Famous quotes containing the word rule:

    “A right rule for a club would be, Admit no man whose presence excludes any one topic. It requires people who are not surprised and shocked, who do and let do, and let be, who sink trifles, and know solid values, and who take a great deal for granted.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
