Famous quotes containing the words universal and/or rule:

    “All men, in the abstract, are just and good; what hinders them, in the particular, is, the momentary predominance of the finite and individual over the general truth. The condition of our incarnation in a private self, seems to be, a perpetual tendency to prefer the private law, to obey the private impulse, to the exclusion of the law of the universal being.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Nothing requires a greater effort of thought than arguments to justify the rule of non-thought.”
    —Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
