Famous quotes containing the words orders, magnitude and/or heat:

    “I’ve got orders to obey, thank God.”
    —Robert Bolt (1924–1995)

    “Constancy has nothing virtuous in itself, independently of the pleasure it confers, and partakes of the temporizing spirit of vice in proportion as it endures tamely moral defects of magnitude in the object of its indiscreet choice.”
    —Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    “Beware thoughts that come in the night. They aren’t turned properly; they come in askew, free of sense and restriction, deriving from the most remote of sources.”
    —William Least Heat Moon [William Trogdon] (b. 1939)
