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

    “There is no explanation for evil. It must be looked upon as a necessary part of the order of the universe. To ignore it is childish, to bewail it senseless.”
    —W. Somerset Maugham (1874–1965)

    “Being a Georgia author is a rather specious dignity, on the same order as, for the pig, being a Talmadge ham.”
    —Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)

    “It is humiliating to remain with our hands folded while others write history. It matters little who wins. To make a people great it is necessary to send them to battle even if you have to kick them in the pants. That is what I shall do.”
    —Benito Mussolini (1883–1945)
