Alfred Denning, Baron Denning Quotes
What is the argument on the other side? Only this, that no case has been found in which it has been done before. That argument does not appeal to me in the least.

The unwritten rules of behaviour are infinite in number, finely shaded, and subtle to the last fraction of a degree. They are not to be broken. If broken, the rules of forgiveness leading to re-establishment are equally of air and iron.
