do you agree with Thomas Jefferson

[spy4me]

Assalamo alaikom brthers and sisters
well, people differ in many ways, and we can find two persons totally different form and essence, those who float on the surface and those who dive into the deep sea
Thomas Jefferson once said:"in matters of style, swim with the current; in matters of principle, stand like a rock"
do you agree?
do you think in rome one should do what the romans do as it is alluded in the first idea?
do you think one should never change his principles whatever happens?

your opinions are most welcome

[Al-Amir]

Yeah I agree, in matters of style when you feel danger
As for principle we should cleave to them no matter happens.

[roma boy]

Yes like he said we must cleave to our principles and hold onto them whereever we goo our principles don't change

[احسان2]

he is right somehow.but i think that we should hold on what we believe in( like principles) if it is right .
about style i think that we shouldnt swim with the current all the time
what i want to say is that we should do what we see that it is good for us and not because something was good for someone necessarily will be good for me

[baby angel]

yes i apseloutly agree with him

[whoseen]

hi my friend, one must stand for his principles even though he is the only but sometimes we are obliged to bow before things that may destroy him .
