Famous quotes containing the words usual, order and/or precedence:

    I quietly declare war with the State, after my fashion, though I will still make use and get advantage of her as I can, as is usual in such cases.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    This is one of the worst speeches I’ve ever seen. No one will listen except the Mobil P.R. man. List what we want to say M arrange items in order of priority M then say them plainly and bluntly.... Hit hard and early. Don’t apologize or evade tough issues.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)

    It is difficult to separate the tapestry
    From the room or loom which takes precedence over it.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
