Famous quotes containing the word rule:

    Our memory is like a shop in the window of which is exposed now one, now another photograph of the same person. And as a rule the most recent exhibit remains for some time the only one to be seen.
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)

    There were some schools, so called [in my youth]; but no qualification was ever required of a teacher, beyond “readin, writin, and cipherin,” to the Rule of Three. If a straggler supposed to understand latin, happened to sojourn in the neighborhood, he was looked upon as a wizzard. There was absolutely nothing to excite ambition for education.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    In the animal kingdom, the rule is, eat or be eaten; in the human kingdom, define or be defined.
    Thomas Szasz (b. 1920)
