Famous quotes containing the word rules:

    Although none of the rules for becoming more alive is valid, it is healthy to keep on formulating them.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    [O]ur rules can have authority over such natural rights only as we have submitted to them. The rights of conscience we never submitted, we could not submit. We are answerable for them to our God.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    No rules exist, and examples are simply life-savers answering the appeals of rules making vain attempts to exist.
    André Breton (1896–1966)
