In addition, favouring of friends, relatives and cronies in a way that is not directly beneficial to the corrupt individual is another form of corruption. In systemic corruption and grand corruption, multiple different methods of corruption are often in use concurrently with similar aims.

Famous quotes containing the word methods:
“A writer who writes, “I am alone” ... can be considered rather comical. It is comical for a man to recognize his solitude by addressing a reader and by using methods that prevent the individual from being alone. The word alone is just as general as the word bread. To pronounce it is to summon to oneself the presence of everything the word excludes.”
—Maurice Blanchot (b. 1907)
“All men are equally proud. The only difference is that not all take the same methods of showing it.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
