Famous quotes containing the words order and/or battle:

    “This event advertises me that there is such a fact as death,—the possibility of a man’s dying. It seems as if no man had ever died in America before; for in order to die you must first have lived.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Women’s battle for financial equality has barely been joined, much less won. Society still traditionally assigns to woman the role of money-handler rather than money-maker, and our assigned specialty is far more likely to be home economics than financial economics.”
    —Paula Nelson (b. 1945)
