"Rules matter, and to be rules they need……" — Julian Baggini

"Rules matter, and to be rules they need to be universal in form: always do this, never do that. But it is foolish to rule out in advance the possibility that an occasion might arise when normal rules just don't apply. Rules are not there to be broken, but sometimes break them we must."

— Julian Baggini
