Famous quotes containing the word rules:
“A scholar, in his Segmenta, left a note,
As follows, The Ruler of Reality,
If more unreal than New Haven, is not
A real ruler, but rules what is unreal.”
—Wallace Stevens (18791955)
“When I hear the hypercritical quarreling about grammar and style, the position of the particles, etc., etc., stretching or contracting every speaker to certain rules of theirs ... I see that they forget that the first requisite and rule is that expression shall be vital and natural, as much as the voice of a brute or an interjection: first of all, mother tongue; and last of all, artificial or father tongue. Essentially your truest poetic sentence is as free and lawless as a lambs bleat.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Now that the steam engine rules the world, a title is an absurdity, still I am all dressed up in this title. It will crush me if I do not support it. The title attracts attention to myself.”
—Stendhal [Marie Henri Beyle] (17831842)
