Principal Chief

Famous quotes containing the words principal and/or chief:

    The principal rule of art is to please and to move. All the other rules were created to achieve this first one.
    Jean Racine (1639–1699)

    The chief reason warfare is still with us is neither a secret death-wish of the human species, nor an irrepressible instinct of aggression, nor, finally and more plausibly, the serious economic and social dangers inherent in disarmament, but the simple fact that no substitute for this final arbiter in international affairs has yet appeared on the political scene.
    Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
