Western Order

Famous quotes containing the words western and/or order:

    So motionless, she seemed stone dead—just seemed:
    She was too old for death, too old for life,
    For as if jealous of all living forms
    She had lain there before bivalves began
    To catacomb their shells on western mountains.
    Edwin John Pratt (1882–1964)

    Art and religion first; then philosophy; lastly science. That is the order of the great subjects of life, that’s their order of importance.
    Muriel Spark (b. 1918)
