Famous quotes containing the words order and/or precedence:

    Woman ... cannot be content with health and agility: she must make exorbitant efforts to appear something that never could exist without a diligent perversion of nature. Is it too much to ask that women be spared the daily struggle for superhuman beauty in order to offer it to the caresses of a subhumanly ugly mate?
    Germaine Greer (b. 1939)

    Let not England forget her precedence of teaching nations how to live.
    John Milton (1608–1674)
