One of the problems the Republican Party has had is that we're too fast to compromise. You can compromise on the little stuff, but you can't compromise on your core principles.

Blake Farenthold

I will sit at the table and compromise with anyone in the name of progress, but there are things I'm not willing to compromise and negotiate on, and that is the rights of women, of immigrants, of workers, and of the LGBTQIA community.

Ayanna Pressley

While I am willing to compromise on process or on programs, I will not compromise my principles, nor would I expect those I work with to do so.

Brad Schneider

It's not that I'm not willing to compromise. But I won't compromise on principles.

Ann Marie Buerkle

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.

Charles Handy

You can compromise without violating your principles, but it is nearly impossible to compromise when you turn principles into ideology.

Jamie Dimon

There can be no compromise on basic principles. There can be no compromise on moral issues. There can be no compromise on matters of knowledge, of truth, of rational conviction.

Ayn Rand

I would not compromise my principles for politics. You're saying, will it become politically unpopular to have the position I'm having? If it does, so be it. I don't compromise my principles for politics.

Chris Christie

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.

Andrew Carnegie

Maher Arar's case stands as a sad example of how we have been too willing to sacrifice our core principles to overarching government power in the name of security, when doing so only undermines the principles we stand for and makes us less safe.

Patrick Leahy

Compromise for compromise sake is never good, unless it is grounded in principles.

Pramila Jayapal

I've always said there is a boulevard that exists between compromising your principles and getting everything you want. Now, we should never compromise our principles. And I never have. Those are the things that people vote for you on, that's the core of who you are. But there's always a boulevard between that and getting everything you want.

Chris Christie

Compromise today is too often applauded simply for itself. The cost of compromise to principles and real lives doesn't seem to matter.

Elizabeth Edwards

I get the reason that you should be willing to negotiate sometimes. But you also ought to be willing to throw a punch.

Elizabeth Warren

I think with defense especially, you have your core principles. If you do those consistently, then it's easy to make, sort of, game-to-game adjustments. But, when you're not doing your core principles consistently, you end up just guessing a lot. To be honest with you, that's what bad teams do.

J. J. Redick

If you don’t intend having a compromise, you don’t negotiate at all.

Nelson Mandela
