Famous quotes containing the word sovereign:

    Chance, my dear, is the sovereign deity in child-bearing.

    If these were only words that I am speaking
    Indifferent sounds and not the heraldic-ho
    Of the clear sovereign that is reality,
    Of the clearest reality that is sovereign,
    How should I repeat them, keep repeating them....
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Psychoanalysis can unravel some of the forms of madness; it remains a stranger to the sovereign enterprise of unreason. It can neither limit nor transcribe, nor most certainly explain, what is essential in this enterprise.
    Michel Foucault (1926–1984)
