Famous quotes containing the words order, battle and/or formation:

    My ideas are a curse.
    They spring from a radical discontent
    with the awful order of things.
    I play clown. I play carpenter. I play nurse.
    I play witch.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Whose kiss
    stings and stills;
    your kiss was stale, satiate and pale
    beside his,
    who commands battles,
    who kills
    when the battle delays.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    It is because the body is a machine that education is possible. Education is the formation of habits, a superinducing of an artificial organisation upon the natural organisation of the body.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–1895)
