Behalten / Keep Blätter / Leaves Ihre / Your Intakt / Intact Meinungen / Opinions Prinzipien / Principles Veränderung / Change Wurzeln / Roots
General principles... are to the facts as the root and sap of a tree are to its leaves.
In politics, sometimes you have to lie, or you make a promise that you cannot keep.
Policies are many, Principles are few, Policies will change, Principles never do.
If you are at a boys' school, especially, there is a level of bravado that you have to keep up otherwise you'll get picked on.
When solving problems, dig at the roots instead of just hacking at the leaves.
You don't get points for leaving the chin open.
In principle, if you understood the mechanisms of keeping things repaired, you could keep things going indefinitely.
You're entitled your own opinions, but you're not entitled to your own facts.
My advice is keep your lips away from the spinning things.
