Kompromiss

The 'morality of compromise' sounds contradictory. Compromise is usually a sign of weakness, or an admission of defeat. Strong men don't compromise, it is said, and principles should never be compromised.

Andrew Carnegie (1835-1919)

Andrew Carnegie

Never cut short your waiting with compromise. Simply put, the waiting's not over until the waiting's done.

We are so presumptuous that we think we can separate our personal interest from that of humanity, and slander mankind without compromising ourselves

Luc de Clapiers Vauvenargues (1715-1747)

Compromise is but the sacrifice of one right or good in the hope of retaining another--too often ending in the loss of both.

Quality, quality, quality: never waver from it, even when you don't see how you can afford to keep it up. When you compromise, you become a commodity and then you die.

Compromise, if not the spice of life, is its solidity. It is what makes nations great and marriages happy.

Compromise used to mean that half a loaf was better than no bread. Among modern statesmen it really seems to mean that half a loaf is better than a whole loaf.

Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874-1936)

Gilbert Keith Chesterton

Compromise makes a good umbrella, but a poor roof; it is temporary expedient, often wise in party politics, almost sure to be unwise in statesmanship.

James Russell Lowell (1819-1891)

James Russell Lowell

Never cut short your waiting with compromise. Simply put, the waiting's not over until the waiting's done.

Compromise is never anything but an ignoble truce between the duty of a man and the terror of a coward.

En kompromiss är en förlikning mellan stridiga intressen där var och en av parterna anser sig ha uppnått vad han egentligen inte hade vågat hoppas och där man bara har undanhållit honom det som rätteligen tillkom honom.

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

Ambrose Bierce

Some people are pragmatists, taking things as they come and making the best of the choices available. Some people are idealists, standing for principle and refusing to compromise. And some people just act on any whim that enters their heads. I pragmatically turn my whims into principles.
