Expedience, not justice, is the rule of contemporary American law.
Abbie Hoffman
No man is justified in doing evil on the ground of expedience.
Theodore Roosevelt
The true danger is when liberty is nibbled away, for expedience, and by parts.
Edmund Burke
There are no morals in politics; there is only expedience. A scoundrel may be of use to us just because he is a scoundrel.
Vladimir Lenin
When virtue is lost, benevolence appears, when benevolence is lost right conduct appears, when right conduct is lost, expedience appears. Expediency is the mere shadow of right and truth; it is the beginning of disorder.
Lao Tzu
