Some people are pragmatists gezegde

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.

Bill Watterson (1958-)

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. I shall argue that strong men, conversely, know when to compromise and that all principles can be compromised to serve a greater principle.

Charles Handy

We shall need compromises in the days ahead, to be sure. But these will be, or should be, compromises of issues, not principles. We can compromise our political positions, but not ourselves. We can resolve the clash of interests without conceding our ideals. And even the necessity for the right kind of compromise does not eliminate the need for those idealists and reformers who keep our compromises moving ahead, who prevent all political situations from meeting the description supplied by Shaw: "smirched with compromise, rotted with opportunism, mildewed by expedience, stretched out of shape with wirepulling and putrefied with permeation."
Compromise need not mean cowardice. ...

John Fitzgerald Kennedy (1917-1963)

. . . I saw people willing to compromise themselves, or change themselves, to acquire what they thought was important. I don't judge what other people do, many choices that may be right for others are definitely not right for me.

Kathy Ireland (1963-)

Management is taking a very hard line, refusing to compromise. We are open to compromise, and unless they do, we will have a strike.

Peter Callero

Other countries don't compromise their principles for other people. We should not compromise.

Bill Lawrence

I think it would be standing room only. I would think a lot of people, a lot of scouts, would want to see that game, just interested in how it would turn out. I mean, a lot of people think that we could beat them, a lot of people think we don't belong on the court with them. So I would love to play them.

Derek Dennis

No I disagree with that. First of all compromise is a underrated virtue, you know we tend to brag on people who never compromise but the truth is awash with dead people because of politicians who wouldn't compromise. I think sometimes compromise is the greatest virtue.

Bill Clinton (1946-)

We want our own people, people who will fight tooth and nail for our interest and secure privilege for the under-privileged; people who will undo the wrongs done to our people ;people who will voice our grievances fearlessly; people who can think, lead and act; people with principles and character. Such people should be sent to the legislatures. We must send such people to Legislatures who will be slaves to none but remain free to their conscience and get our grievances redressed.

B. R. Ambedkar

Hundreds of people worked on it -- taking customer feedback. We want people to try it and compare it with the choices they have.

Brad Chase

Whether I get adequate attention or not, people here do know the work I have been doing systematically and without compromise for over 40 years. I get tired of people making excuses for guys who don't continue the art because they can't make a living.

Bill Dixon (1979-)

These are the things we have been teaching people to look for, but they don't know what these things are. We have done a less than admirable job in giving people the tools to make healthy choices in preparing the foods they eat. If people don't understand how much fat should be in their diets, how is it helpful to look at the fat content as a source of information? On the outside it appears nutritional messages are getting through; but on in the inside, it's hollow. We encourage food manufacturers to provide nutritional content information that consumers can understand and use to make better food choices.

Steve Bodhaine

People go to Africa and confirm what they already have in their heads and so they fail to see what is there in front of them. This is what people have come to expect. It's not viewed as a serious continent. It's a place of strange, bizarre and illogical things, where people don't do what common sense demands.

Chinua Achebe (1930-)

I didn't feel comfortable taking the things that people were dropping off, but the people at Crossroads insisted I did. They told me that people brought those things there just for me and that they wanted me to have them.

Celeste Arnold

The unbelievable catastrophe that is (the Medicare situation) is a prime example of ideology dominating sense. Here the unquestioned assumption that you're making people better off if you give them more choices is just plain wrong. Some people who can't process the intricacies of Medicare are making the choice not to participate at all.
