Syn: Temporizing.
Usage: Timeserving, Temporizing. Both these words are
applied to the conduct of one who adapts himself
servilely to times and seasons. A timeserver is rather
active, and a temporizer, passive. One whose policy is
timeserving comes forward to act upon principles or
opinions which may promote his advancement; one who is
temporizing yields to the current of public sentiment
or prejudice, and shrinks from a course of action
which might injure him with others. The former is
dishonest; the latter is weak; and both are
contemptible.
[1913 Webster]
Trimming and timeserving, which are but two
words for the same thing, . . . produce
confusion. --South.
[1913 Webster]

that
Canst with thine eyes at once see good and evil,
Inclining to them both. --Shak.
