Famous quotes containing the words order of, order and/or battle:

    “My ideas are a curse.
    They spring from a radical discontent
    with the awful order of things.
    I play clown. I play carpenter. I play nurse.
    I play witch.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “The human body is not a thing or substance, given, but a continuous creation. The human body is an energy system ... which is never a complete structure; never static; is in perpetual inner self-construction and self-destruction; we destroy in order to make it new.”
    —Norman O. Brown (b. 1913)

    “That civilisation may not sink,
    Its great battle lost,”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
