Famous quotes containing the words list of, list and/or disorder:

    Religious literature has eminent examples, and if we run over our private list of poets, critics, philanthropists and philosophers, we shall find them infected with this dropsy and elephantiasis, which we ought to have tapped.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I made a list of things I have
    to remember and a list
    of things I want to forget,
    but I see they are the same list.
    Linda Pastan (b. 1932)

    I have come back
    but disorder is not what it was.
    I have lost the trick of it!
    The innocence of it!
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
