Famous quotes containing the words chaos and/or strikes:
“A face peered. All the grey night
In chaos of vacancy shone;
Naught but vast sorrow was there
The sweet cheat gone.”
—Walter De La Mare (18731956)
“In really hard times the rules of the game are altered. The inchoate mass begins to stir. It becomes potent, and when it strikes,... it strikes with incredible emphasis. Those are the rare occasions when a national will emerges from the scattered, specialized, or indifferent blocs of voters who ordinarily elect the politicians. Those are for good or evil the great occasions in a nations history.”
—Walter Lippmann (18891974)
