Famous quotes containing the words standing and/or order:

    There is nothing more mysterious than a TV set left on in an empty room. It is even stranger than a man talking to himself or a woman standing dreaming at her stove. It is as if another planet is communicating with you.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    In order to move others deeply we must deliberately allow ourselves to be carried away beyond the bounds of our normal sensibility.
    Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)
