Famous quotes containing the words presidents, height and/or order:

—J.R. Pole (b. 1922)
“The height of cleverness is being able to conceal it.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (16131680)
“It is often necessary to know how to obey a woman in order sometimes to have the right to command her.”
—Victor Hugo (18021885)
