The polytechnic is governed by rules and regulations which you are all expected to be conversant with.

I know we must abide
each by the rules that bind us here:
the divers, and the sailors, and the women on the pier.

All meanings, we know, depend on the key of interpretation.

But you must have knowledge and know-how to interpret the meaning of what you observe

We've got to have rules and obey them. After all, we're not savages. We're English; and the English are the best at everything. So we've got to do the right things

We obey our laws because we feel them to be our laws; we submit to be governed by our institutions because we feel them to be our institutions. They are identified with us, intuitively and emotionally, because we are, we think, part and parcel of them and they of us.

I'm subject to literally a million laws and regulations and I obey almost 99.99 per cent of them. It's only when I think the law is contrary to the interest of the people that I have an issue.

These laws that we have made, all we need do is to ensure that between we the lawmakers and executive the implementers and of course, the judiciary, the interpreters to ensure that there is a harmonious relationship amongst the tripod.

All of us have to act responsibly.

Regulations are all very well for drill, but in the hour of danger they are no more use. You have to learn to think.

Look, that's why there's rules, understand? So that you think before you break 'em.

We've got to have rules and obey them. After all, we're not savages.

I think you will have to be very, very careful to have the regulations that will protect freedom.

That’s why the forms matter. People have to see things done by the rules. We’ve got to make people feel safe again and make them believe that compromises are going to be binding.
