This is about principled gezegde

 This is about principled compromise, not compromised principles.

 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.

 [A politician is] a person skilled in the art of compromise. Usually an elected official who has compromised to get nominated, compromised to get elected, and compromised repeatedly to stay in office.

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

 The standard that a society should actually embody its own professed principles is a utopian one, in the sense that moral principles contradict the way things really are --- and always will be. How things really are --- and always will be --- is neither all-evil nor all-good but deficient, inconsistent, inferior. Principles invite us to do something about the morass of contradictions in which we function morally. Principles invite us to clean up our act; to become intolerant of moral laxity and compromise and cowardice and the turning away from what is upsetting: that secret gnawing of the heart that tells us that what we are doing is not right, and so counsels us that we'd be better off just not thinking about it.
  Susan Sontag

 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. ...

 He was that principled. Maybe a lot of us have a hard time understanding that. We sometimes like to bury our principles but he didn't.

 The irony is, when all religions are true, those who still believe their religions are distinctly true are better able to mobilize and therefore gain the upper hand. Their constituents will be more incensed than anyone else when they are asked to compromise their principles and will take action to uphold those principles.

 I try to remember at all times how he was able to negotiate the peaceful termination of apartheid in South Africa. He compromised but never relinquished his principles.

 So when I decided to put out a record, I knew I couldn't give it away for free, but I compromised with myself. I made a compromise that I would sell it for as cheaply as I could so that as many people could get a copy as possible.

 There is no evidence in this case that the ballots were ever compromised. And if the ballots weren't compromised, the election wasn't compromised.
