Principles Produce

Famous quotes containing the words principles and/or produce:

    Every political system is an accumulation of habits, customs, prejudices, and principles that have survived a long process of trial and error and of ceaseless response to changing circumstances.

    Edward C. Banfield (b. 1916)

    Exercise and application produce order in our affairs, health of body, cheerfulness of mind, and these make us precious to our friends.
