The maxim of the British people is ''Business as usual.''
Winston Churchill
Observe this, that tho a woman swear, forswear, lie, dissemble, back-bite, be proud, vain, malicious, anything, if she secures the main chance, she's still virtuous; that's a maxim.
George Farquhar
All that is valuable in human society depends upon the opportunity for development accorded the individual.
