We show that an associate rule is a weighted mean of two companion rules. In particular, the trapezoidal (T) and Simpson (S) rules are weighted means of the companion pairs (L,R) and (T,M) respectively, with L the left rectangle, R the right rectangle and M the midpoint rules. As L,R,T and M reproduce exactly the number $\\pi=\\displaystyle \\int_0^\\pi 2\\, \\sin^2(x) dx$, we named them the four \"{beautiful}\" \\ rules.
