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

    “It is well within the order of things
    That man should listen when his mate sings;
    But the true male never yet walked
    Who liked to listen when his mate talked.”
    —Anna Wickham (1884–1947)

    “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)

    “The battle of the North Atlantic is a grim business, and it isn’t going to be won by charm and personality.”
    —Edmund H. North, British screenwriter, and Lewis Gilbert. First Sea Lord (Laurence Naismith)
