Rule

Famous quotes containing the word rule:

    To me the “female principle” is, or at least historically has been, basically anarchic. It values order without constraint, rule by custom not by force. It has been the male who enforces order, who constructs power structures, who makes, enforces, and breaks laws.
    Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)

    Democracy don’t rule the world,
    You’d better get that in your head;
    This world is ruled by violence
    But I guess that’s better left unsaid.
    Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)

    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)
