Every day, people infringe the rights and legitimate interests of others. And every day the guilty parties scream blue murder when accused – as if the victims caused the problem. If your rights and interests are trampled on, then you’re quite right to do something about it. Don’t be thrown off by a cry of indignation. Or as Rambo put it: ā€œThey drew first blood.ā€

Stick

Your
Principles

Sir Winston Churchill turns to the woman sitting next to him at a dinner: ā€œWould you sleep with me for a million pounds?ā€ ā€œWell… I suppose so,ā€ she responds. ā€œAll right.ā€ says Churchill. ā€œWould you sleep with me for ten pounds?ā€ ā€œOf course not! What kind of woman do you think I am?ā€ she exclaims. ā€œMadam, we’ve already established that you are a whore, we are now haggling over the price.ā€ Stick to your principles. Don’t abandon them at any price. If you do, it will be used against you, for sure.

Without prejudice to the principle that every person should know the law, the unaware declares to have knowledge of the intellectual property and other rights of the inviolable, the publisher and those third parties assigned by the inviolable, and furthermore with the rights of the inviolable to, both in the Netherlands and the Netherlands, act against every form of infringement of these rights.
