Famous quotes containing the word rules:

    “Retaliation is related to nature and instinct, not to law. Law, by definition, cannot obey the same rules as nature.”
    —Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    “The values by which we are to survive are not rules for just and unjust conduct, but are those deeper illuminations in whose light justice and injustice, good and evil, means and ends are seen in fearful sharpness of outline.”
    —Jacob Bronowski (1908–1974)

    “Good discipline is more than just punishing or laying down the law. It is liking children and letting them see that they are liked. It is caring enough about them to provide good, clear rules for their protection.”
    —Jeannette W. Galambos (20th century)
