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

    A. Well, an old order is a violent one.
    This proves nothing. Just one more truth, one more
    Element in the immense disorder of truths.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    In schools all over the world, little boys learn that their country is the greatest in the world, and the highest honor that could befall them would be to defend it heroically someday. The fact that empathy has traditionally been conditioned out of boys facilitates their obedience to leaders who order them to kill strangers.
    Myriam Miedzian, U.S. author. Boys Will Be Boys, ch. 3 (1991)

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